Hi
Anyone bought or use the electric ear wax removal before? I often experience ear blocks and everytime for see ENT the ENT specialist say i have ear wax i was thinking of cleaning it myself instead of always visit ENT very xpensive. Come across this electric ear wax removal ad in fb saw the video looks safe and easy to use... anybody use it before? Mind advise?

nope. The electric ear wax is just working like automatic cotton bud to me jer......u tell me cotton bud can help u remove ear wax or not? For me, it don't

FYI, u no need go till ENT to remove ear wax, any GP can do. The process is fairly simple (can ask someone help u at home also), DIY, just get syringe, filled it with warm water, spray slowly, not too much pressure (how determine, if u feel pain, mean too much pressure liou) into your ears canal, repeat multiple times until the wax come out.....

if you have harden ear wax, then, u might need to put some medicine to soften it. Then, maybe u need to look for doctor (some GP can do, last time I go GP, not ENT).

Actually I have visited a GP before and he has this scope-like equipment that he placed into my ear to see the condition inside and helped me clear some of the wax. Also gave some ear drops that helps to soften hardened earwax so that you can dig it out easily.
