How to Remove Earwax

How to Remove Earwax




Cleaning your ears regularly will promote better hygiene. Routine earwax removal must be done gently. The suggestions that follow will remove normal earwax. If you have earwax that generally gets impacted (your doctor will have told you at some point in your life), you need to see a doctor to have it removed.

Step1
Choose the method best for you. If you have dry or itchy ears, use only warm water or saline solution, and irrigate your ears only. If you have sensitive skin, use saline solution or plain water; if you have a lot of earwax, use oil, but discontinue use if irritation occurs. If you have no sensitivities, you can use any oils and hydrogen peroxide. Excessive earwax may require several applications over three days.


Step2
Gather needed supplies near a sink.


Step3
Warm the hydrogen peroxide and/or oil by placing the bottles in a bath of very warm water for a few minutes to bring the solutions to body temperature.


Step4
Place one of the towels over your shoulder on the side that you are treating.


Step5
Tip your head so that the ear you are about to treat is facing the ceiling.


Step6
Puddle three drops of oil into your ear canal using the eye dropper.


Step7
Purge the dropper of remaining oil into the sink, then use the dropper to place three drops of peroxide in the same ear canal.


Step8
Wait for a few minutes, until the bubbling of the peroxide stops.


Step9
Move to the next step if you need only one application. If you need multiple applications, place a cotton ball gently in the ear opening. Do not push it down inside. This will hold the solution in the ear so it can do its job. Apply the wax removal solution frequently a couple of times a day for a few days. Leave a cotton ball in place between applications. After a couple of days, you are ready to remove the cotton and move to the next step.


Step10
Make sure your towel is on your shoulder and your ear is over the sink. Tip your head so the ear you are treating now faces the floor.


Step11
Fill the small bowl with warm water. Fill the bulb aspirator with warm water.


Step12
Aim the open end of the bulb aspirator at a 45-degree angle to your ear canal by resting it against the bottom rim of your ear.


Step13
Ensure the end of the bulb is not in so deep that you have created a seal. Expelling water into your ear canal if there is a seal could cause injury.


Step14
Compress the bulb in a quick gentle bursts. Use only enough pressure to wash free any loosened earwax.


Step15
Dry the outside of your ear with a cotton swab or cotton ball. Never place a cotton swab or any object in your ear canal.
