The bodily process of producing ear wax is completely natural. For many people ear wax goes unnoticed and does not cause any complications. However, it is estimated that between 1.3 to 3.9 million people in the UK alone experience impacted ear wax build up, also known as ‘cerumenosis‘. Impacted ear wax build up can lead to many symptoms such as a ‘blocked ear’. Although a blocked ear can be as a result of a number of different ear and health-related problems, it is a common result of ear wax build up and a frequent reason why people have their ears cleaned and cleared.  At Platinum Foot and Ear Care we use a variety of techniques to provide you with a safe and comfortable experience.  We can provide relief in a single session and will provide advice on how to avoid ear wax build up.
