Ear Cleaning in Edgewater, Ormond Beach and Port Orange, FL

Earwax normally takes care of itself — it’s your body’s natural way of cleaning the ear canal and pushing out dirt and debris. But sometimes earwax builds up faster than your body can remove it. When it becomes impacted against the eardrum or completely blocks the ear canal, it can lead to hearing difficulties, discomfort, and even tinnitus (that bothersome ringing in your ears).

At Hopkins Hearing Institute, we provide safe, professional earwax removal for patients throughout Edgewater, Ormond Beach, Port Orange, New Smyrna Beach, Daytona Beach, South Daytona, and surrounding East Volusia County communities. In many cases, addressing hearing loss can be as simple as removing impacted wax — and our specialists ensure it’s done gently, effectively, and without the risks that come with at-home remedies.

You may be tempted to try to remove earwax using a cotton swab. Don’t. If earwax doesn’t come out on its own, try using ear drops. You can find them in the drug store or supermarket. Ear drops soften earwax so it comes out more easily during your next shower or bath.
