A hard plug of wax can also be removed by your doctor or practice nurse, by flushing the ear with warm water (syringing). If there is a lot of wax or the wax is very hard, it may need to be softened first and Earex olive oil ear drops can also be used for this. Who shouldn't use Earex olive oil ear drops?The ear drops can make the symptoms of excessive ear wax worse, including some discomfort, irritation or pain, loss of hearing, dizziness and tinnitus (ringing sound in the ear).

Repeat the above steps for the other ear if so directed. Do not rinse the dropper. Replace the cap after use. Tilt the head to the side so the affected ear is facing upwards. (For children it may be easier to get them to lie down on one side.) Squeeze two to three drops of Earex olive oil drops into the ear canal and leave this in for a few minutes to let the drops soak into the ear wax. Keep the head tilted to the side while the drops are in the ear and massage around the outside of the ear. You can use some cotton wool or tissue to gently plug the ear and stop the drops running out if you need to. Earex olive oil drops are suitable for adults and children aged one year and over. However, you should get medical advice before using them to treat a child. The Care Sodium Bicarbonate Ear Drops uses Sodium Bicarbonate rather than olive oil to soften the wax. It comes in a small 10ml bottle and has a pipette at the top of the bottle for you to squeeze to collect the drops up and drop into the ear canal. It recommends dropping 3-4 drops into your ear canal and allow the solution to remain in your ear for 5-10 minutes. Aswell as sodium bicarbonate there is also the active ingredients of Glycerol (E422), Purified Water and Dichlorobenzyl Alcohol (Preservative). These ear drops can be used in the ears of anyone over the age of five. It is important to be careful with this product as there are other chemicals involved to only use for the recommended number of drops each time. Sodium Bicarbonate ear drops can on rare occasion cause dryness within your ear canal and if your ears do become irritated it is a good idea to consult your GP. Personally I feel the box is deceiving as bought thinking it was soley sodium bicarbonate and therefore a natural product when in fact it is not. Reporting of side effects.
