Ear washing is a simple technique, which allows to clean the earwax from the ear canals. It is a technique accessible anywhere in the world. All you need is an otoscope, a large capacity syringe, and some knowledge.

​

First of all, we need to know what we are seeing through the otoscope. You need your learning and your technique. It is not worth inventing anything.

​

Second, we must know the type of earwax and if the patient has previous ear pathologies, such as acute or chronic otitis.

​

Third, the drops are not good. Not the oil, not the hydrogen peroxide or anything at all.

These practices cause pain in patients, wounds, infections and even tympanic perforations.
