Monessen Posted September 23, 2018 Report Share Posted September 23, 2018 Not every doctor or clinic performs this procedure but I wonder if anyone knows where one can go to have ear wax lavaged. People tell me I need to get the wax out of my ears because I am constantly asking them to repeat themselves. I am in my 70s and I thought that decreased hearing might come from my age. My friends assure me that it does not. 😨 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lumieretoo Posted September 23, 2018 Report Share Posted September 23, 2018 My doctor, Dr. Aceves, has done it for me. I was shocked at the amount that he removed in a few minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gringal Posted September 23, 2018 Report Share Posted September 23, 2018 Sadly, your friends are wrong. My dad, who was healthy otherwise, was nearly stone deaf at 70 but wouldn't consider hearing aids. I'm well on my way in that regard, but have been wearing aids for years. Any General Practitioner can clean your ears, but if that doesn't clear up the problem entirely, I suggest you go to LCS (no membership required) and sign up to have Polo Gonzales give you a hearing test. He is easy to deal with and has the right equipment for testing. He can get hearing aids of many brands. If you get hearing aids, they usually need to be adjusted afterwards, and this is more convenient that going to GDL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suegarn Posted September 23, 2018 Report Share Posted September 23, 2018 Dr. Nogueira at Quality Care clinic is an ENT specialist. He cleans my ears out for me every so often. I need special care with one ear because I have a perforated eardrum, so they can't just use water to flush out the earwax, otherwise I get a severe ear infection.

ajijicbound Posted September 24, 2018 Report Share Posted September 24, 2018 A doctor can tell you if he can see your eardrum or not. If not, you have wax buildup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ComputerGuy Posted September 24, 2018 Report Share Posted September 24, 2018 What is holistic ear cleaning? Not candling, I hope. By the way, whoever said aging doesn't bring hearing loss... seriously? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johanson Posted September 25, 2018 Report Share Posted September 25, 2018 Rony comes from a country where everyone speaks at least three maybe four languages fluently and as a result, he had very little trouble learning yet another, Mexican Spanish fluently.
