Ear Cleaners

[Ric.ror]

I am looking for one of those things that clean your ears - a bit like a syringer - I think - anyone know where I can buy one

[crete]

most large chemists have them in stock, id be interested to hear from anyone who has used them,

i use a camera dust blower its a rubber thing with a brush on the end, just throw the brush away and gently squirt warm water into the ear, its like syringing

[quibbmedusa]

have you ever used the Hopi ear candles? much more effective and very gentle..its amazing the amount of muck that comes out when you use them, theyre brilliant!

i was told by a pharmacist a while ago that all the ear cleaners are basically water so you are paying for the bottle

[Ric.ror]

No its not the ear cleanser but a kind of suction thing I am looking for - Hope that makes sense

[yummymum]

I know its not what your looking for but I use Clear its a cleansing spray and it seems to work

Hopi ear candles were used by the Hopi Native American Indians to draw out impurities, they are like a hollow candle that you put just inside your ear (while your laying down! otherwise they fall out!) you light the end and wait for it to burn down, and no your ear doesnt get hot! and they draw out all the muck with the warming action!

do not attempt to suction out your ears , you could do serious damage, go to your gp or practice nurse and get them to have a look to see if you need it doing

Whilst visiting my wife's hearing aid provider, the question of keeping ears free from wax was mentioned. A half teaspoonful of bicarbonate of soda in a little warm water, syringed into the ear. Then flush.
