DEAFCLICKS COMMENT: For more than forty years, Cerumol has been coming to the aid of people with problems caused by excessive ear wax.

WHAT IS EAR WAX?

Ear wax is a perfectly natural secretion of fats and oils produced in the outer ear. The wax in your ear also contains dead skin, hair and dust and debris from the world outside all of which is perfectly healthy and normal.

WHY IS IT THERE?

Ear wax keeps the lining of the ear canal moist and helps to keep the ear clean.

WHAT DOES IT DO?

Sometimes excessive wax is produced and this can gradually form a plug in the outer ear canal outside the eardrum. Deafness and a blocked feeling in the ear are the most common symptoms.

WHO SUFFERS FROM EXCESSIVE EAR WAX?

Anyone can suffer from a build-up of wax in the ear. It is one of the commonest problems seen in the GP's surgery. Today this common problem is easily treated, either by yourself or with the help of your GP.

Cerumol's unique arachis oil formula gently and effectively penetrates deep into the ear to soften and loosen ear wax. Gentle in action, simple to administer and effective at removing stubborn ear wax, Cerumol is available only from pharmacies.

Please note, this product should not be used when there is inflammation of the ear or if the ear drum is perforated and of course you should ensure that you always read the label.
