Sometimes micro suction just isn't the one !
As effective as it can be, a rock solid lump like this was not budging ! So out come the instruments ! ✅

No - I don't treat children this young. This little one is actually family....
Despite me being family he was cautious,
Did he want me to look ? NO ❌
We had a little play with the equipment ✅
I let him feel in control ✅
Small steps✅
Typically I see ages 4yr and over as it's unlikely any intervention is needed before this age.
Don't use cotton buds in your child's ear - it creates problems further down the line ❌

Your child's ear should naturally discharge excess wax - this occurs with facial movement, talking /chewing. ✅
Don't forget 🧠 Wax is the protective barrier created to protect the ear canal and ear drum , it's antibacterial , acidic PH 5.0-6.5.
Reduces fungal colonisation, inhibits bacterial growth ✅

I Frequently see patients who are referred for wax removal by the GP after they were advised the wax in their ears is causing their vertigo. Let's talk about this :

MYTH : Ear wax causes BPPV
FACT : It doesn’t.

BPPV (Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo) is caused by tiny balance crystals moving inside the inner ear.
Ear wax sits in the outer ear, so it cannot affect balance in this way.
While ear wax can cause:
Blocked or reduced hearing
A feeling of fullness
Mild imbalance
…it does not cause the spinning vertigo seen in BPPV.
👉 Ear wax problems and BPPV are separate conditions and need different assessments and treatments.

The Link Between Hearing Loss and Dementia 🧠
Research has shown a clear association between untreated hearing loss and an increased risk of dementia. The risk tends to rise as hearing loss becomes more significant.
Several factors may explain this connection:
The brain must work harder to process sound, increasing cognitive load
Reduced sound input can lead to less stimulation of key brain areas
Hearing loss may contribute to social withdrawal, which is linked to cognitive decline
Encouragingly, evidence suggests that early identification and management of hearing loss—including the use of hearing aids—may help support cognitive health over time.
Looking after your hearing is an important part of looking after your brain.

The following video is not taken by me - it's actually something a patient sent to me when requesting a booking. They were right to go no further ! You will see how difficult it was to show me what they intended ... This is why
1)The ear canal is bendy it's very difficult to see round the bends down to the ear drum.
2) When using some video endoscopes the image you are displayed is often in reverse therefore it feels like trying to do this in a mirror.
3) awareness of anatomy is essential

So how do I do it?

1) I know the anatomy in fine detail
2) I straighten the canal
3) it's always easier performing this on an individual than on yourself
4) I'm not working against the reverse image effect.

How does a child's ear differ to an adult?
OUTER EAR - canals are shorter, narrower, and more horizontal, cartilage is softer and more pliable.
TYMPANIC MEMBRANE - lies more horizontally, slightly thicker and less transparent
MIDDLE EAR - Eustachian tube of a child is shorter , wider and more horizontal than an adult. Less effective opening during swallowing.
Lined with relatively thicker lymphoid tissue
MIDDLE EAR CAVITY - smaller, contains residual mesenchymal tissue in infants. In an adult this cavity is larger and air filled. .
