Can Microsuction Help People with Tinnitus

Microsuction is a painless and effective procedure for people with impacted earwax and can work wonders for people who suffer from Tinnitus.

Microsuction is not generally a cure for tinnitus, however it can relieve certain symptoms such as earwax removal. This can help with sound to travel normally through the ear canal and ease the symptoms of tinnitus like muffled hearing. Many people have reported that their tinnitus becomes quieter after the procedure leading to overall positive wellbeing.

The option of Microsuction is usually recommended for people who suffer with tinnitus as this is a safer option without having to use water. Methods such as Water Irrigation can actually make tinnitus worse and even cause dizziness after the procedure. Whereas Microsuction is a gentle procedure and causes much less discomfort especially for those who have sensitive ears.

It is important to understand that Microsuction is not a miracle treatment for tinnitus and is only beneficial if you have these issues due to the build up of earwax. Tinnitus is more likely to be caused by consistent exposure to loud sounds, stress and other medical conditions. In these cases, having Microsuction carried out to remove the earwax may not be as beneficial to make any difference to the tinnitus itself.

If you are thinking about having Microsuction then it’s worth speaking you’re a healthcare professional first to see whether this will be beneficial for you as they may be able to give you some alternative treatments and advice.
