Think you need a hearing test? It could be built up ear wax rather than a permanent hearing loss. Let us check you as part of your microsuction appointment before you have a hearing test.
If you have been suffering with muffled hearing or total hearing loss you could have conductive hearing loss. One of the causes of this is the build-up of wax in your ear canal, which in turn can stop the transmission of sound waves, resulting in muffled or reduced hearing.
If you are a hearing aid user, this build of wax can also affect the function of the hearing aid, which in turn results in muffled or reduced hearing. There are 2 great reasons to come and see us and have microsuction before you attend a hearing test.
Often audiologists are unable to complete a test due to ear wax build up, which means you will have to book another appointment at a later date once the wax is cleared.
You may not need a hearing test at all. Often it is wax that is causing the hearing loss and patients often find the immediate hearing gain reassures them they are not losing their hearing.
