How do you clean your ears? In my years of being a Hearing Audiologist, I have been told many stories about what people clean their ears with - from the everyday cotton swabs to pens, paperclips, hair grips, glasses arms, and car keys. I’m sure nearly everyone is guilty of sticking something in their ears they are not supposed to so I’m going to explain why the old wives tale ‘nothing smaller than your elbow’ is so true. Our ears are designed by nature to be both self-cleaning and selfprotecting and that’s why by using the wrong cleaning methods, you risk causing injury to the ears, damaging your hearing, or even cause infections. Earwax (also called cerumen) is necessary for the ear’s self-cleaning mechanism to work properly. Earwax is manufactured by glands in the skin of the outer ear canal, the hole through which sound travels to the eardrum. Earwax serves several important functions. It coats the skin of the ear canal, repelling water and helping to protect it against injury and infection. It also helps to keep the skin inside the ears from getting dry and itchy. In addition, earwax traps dust and germs, keeping them from reaching the eardrum. Usually, you don’t need to do anything to help this natural cleaning process unless you suffer from an impaction that may have to be removed. Trying to forcibly remove the ear’s protective wax layer or stop an itch can damage the delicate skin of the ear canal or puncture (put a hole in) the eardrum. This can increase your risk of infection and lead to a permanent hearing loss needing either surgery or a hearing aid to correct the impairment. So it is best to leave the inside of your ear alone and not disturb its natural environment. This means no cotton swabs, no fingers and certainly no sharp objects! The ear canal is narrow and curved, consequently some people are susceptible to getting blockages of wax, skin, foreign objects, debris from infection. If a blockage is present, you may notice your hearing seems, dull, there may be a ringing sound in your ears, your ears may feel full become itchy or ache. If this is the case, you will need to have it professionally removed. Microsuction is renowned as the most efficient and the safest way to remove blockages. It is highly recommended by GPs, audiologists and ENT consultants. Microsuction of an ear canal is performed under direct vision using a microscope. The ear canal is cleared using gentle suction, proving to be the most effective way to clean the ears reducing all risks of infection.
