In this short blog, Professor Martin Burton looks at the evidence on ear drops for removing earwax, and some things to think about, including whether you need to remove it at all. Professor Burton is an ear nose and throat doctor and an author of the Cochrane Review on ear drops to remove earwax. Join in the conversation with @SarahChapman30 @CochraneUK @CochraneENT @martinjburton or leave a comment on the blog. Various liquids can be used as ear drops include oils (almond or olive) and oil-based compounds, water-based compounds, or water by itself. Ear syringing with waterSoftening the wax with ear drops may be enough to allow the natural processes of elimination to occur so that the wax comes out of the ear on its own. Just like it should do. So, if time allows, simple softening and a ‘wait and see’ approach may be enough. It’s obvious from this description that two things are critically important. The first is, there has to be a gap between a lump of wax and the walls of the ear canal. Otherwise, the jet of water simply drives the wax further inwards, and that can be a problem. Secondly, the ear drum has to be intact, and normal. If there is a hole in the ear drum, or the drum is missing completely (as can happen) the jet of water just goes through the hole and the patient can end up with an ear infection. Although syringing was once done a lot, usually by a nurse or doctor in primary care, there were always potential problems and risks associated with it. As a result, it is not often done nowadays, but can still be effective if done carefully, and safely, by an experienced operator. “Micro-suction” Earwax is normal. It is produced by glands in the outer part of your ear canal. In most people, most of the time, it is not a problem. But not always. Usually the wax passes out, along the ear canal, into the bowl of the ear; it doesn’t produce any symptoms, and doesn’t ‘build up’ in any way.

Do not use if the ear drum has been damaged or perforated, there is an infection or any problems with ears (eczema, itching sensation, dermatitis or any other skin problem).If you’ve used ear drops before to soften ear wax, you might want to use the same again or try something different. Cost and availability may also be relevant. What if you do nothing? Should your symptoms persist or worsen, or you experience any other side effects or burning, stop using the drops and seek advice from your doctor or pharmacist.

The evidence comes from a Cochrane Review* and is relevant to adults and children. When is earwax a problem?
