Greasy ears, typically wet, sticky, greasy cerumen, may affect hearing when present for long periods of time or in large quantities, so they need to be cleaned regularly. It can be treated by pulling out earwax, otoscopic removal and cerumen flushing.
1. Earwax removal: Greasy cerumen can be cleaned out by yourself using an ear scoop or other means, but you should pay attention to hygiene and avoid violent earwax removal to avoid damage to the ear.
2. Otoscopic removal: If it is difficult to remove the cerumen by oneself, it can also be removed by an ENT doctor with the help of cerumen hooks, suction devices and other tools under the otoscope.
3. Cerumen rinsing: If the earwax is too much or has already caused embolism, you can use sodium bicarbonate solution to drop the earwax, wait for it to soften and then rinse it out with saline.
Warm tips: general oily ear should be cleaned regularly without much other treatment. But if secondary pus, pain and other phenomena need to consult a doctor.
