HEARING LOSS
Hearing loss is a common but often overlooked issue, especially as it can develop gradually and subtly. Many people are unaware they have hearing loss because the symptoms may not be as apparent as complete deafness. Instead, they might experience milder forms that can significantly impact their quality of life without being immediately obvious. Your Pinnacle Audiologist is there to offer hearing loss advice if you feel you are experiencing early symptoms.
In Ireland, it's estimated that around 50% of people over the age of 50 and about 70% of those over 70 have some degree of hearing loss. Despite this high prevalence, only about 40% of individuals who need hearing aids actually use them. Moreover, those experiencing early symptoms of hearing loss tend to delay seeking help, waiting an average of ten years from the onset of symptoms before getting their hearing tested.
Your audiologist can determine the cause and extent of your hearing loss by examining and testing your hearing.

EAR WAX REMOVAL
Ear wax is good for the health of your ears and it plays a vital role in preventing infection and removing debris from the ear canal. However, excess earwax can significantly affect your hearing, leading to discomfort, ear pain, difficulty hearing, or a sensation of fullness in the ear.
Attempting to remove earwax at home is not recommended, as it can be dangerous and may result in serious complications, such as damage to the ear canal, perforation of the eardrum, or infection. For safe and effective earwax removal, it's best to see a healthcare provider who specialises in this procedure.
At Mullins & Henry, our audiologist offers professional earwax removal using microsuction, a technique that is painless, clean, and liquid-free. This method ensures that excess wax is removed safely and effectively, providing relief from the symptoms you're experiencing.
If you're struggling with earwax buildup, don't hesitate to get in touch and book your wax removal appointment today.
