Health Hub Ear care
Blocked ears and ear wax are a common reason people book a GP appointment in Hervey Bay. These guides explain what ear wax does, the signs that it has built up, why cotton buds and ear candles are not recommended, and what happens at a microsuction ear cleaning appointment at Main Street Medical Centre in Pialba. Microsuction removes wax under direct vision with a fine suction tube, without water or syringing. The GP consultation is bulk billed for Medicare card holders and the microsuction procedure is $75 per ear. It is not suitable for young children, who need a standard consultation first.
Blocked or muffled ears are usually caused by wax build-up. Seven signs it is time to get your ears checked, how microsuction compares with syringing, and what it costs in Hervey Bay.
