What is ear irrigation?


Ear irrigation, is a process that used to be performed by the NHS to remove ear wax blockages. Water is pumped into the ear canal using a specialised low pressure tool, softening and loosening any wax present. It is typically a procedure that takes fifteen minutes to half an hour. As the water runs back out of the ear, a cup or basin is placed under the ear to collect it and any ear wax it has flushed out. Patients sometimes report minor discomfort from the sensation of water touching their ear drum.


Prior to ear irrigation, the ear wax needs to be softened using ear drops. These can be clinical drops such as those containing hydrogen peroxide, or other lubricating fluids such as olive oil. This softening process can take several days to a week (sometimes longer) beforehand.


How is microsuction different from ear irrigation?


Both methods of ear wax removal can show positive results, but preliminary evidence suggests that microsuction offers fewer risks, particularly for patients who have existing ear conditions. Our clinicians use ENT surgical binocular microscopes to magnify their view of the ear canal and pinpoint the wax deposits to be removed. This precision means that Microsuction can be used even when the patient has had an ear infection or a perforated ear drum. The gentle suction of the tool ensures that you experience minimal discomfort during the process.
