Does Ear Wax Removal Help with the Volume of Tinnitus?

Does wax removal help with the volume of tinnitus?

 

[Elinor]

Sometimes impacted ear wax causes lowered hearing. With lowered hearing one can get the perception of a louder tinnitus. Having the ear wax removed will then return the hearing back to normal and the tinnitus becomes less noticable.

Make sure you use olive oil ear drops 7-10 days prior to wax removal to protect your ears from crusted wax removal

Crusted wax removal? Is ear irrigation safe?

 

[glynis]

Yes it is as long as you use olive oil drops for 7-10 days.
A few people did develop tinnitus that way but not used drops.
