Hi Kittenheels..


I had this problem last year while on holiday in Turkey..


I got some stuff (a jet spray) that worked within a couple of hours and a load of wax came out. (nasty)


Its called Clean Ears by Naveh and is available in in the UK. on line.

I only needed to use it a couple of times.


If you cannot find something I still have most of the spray left and it in date until Feb 2016.

You are welcome to try it.

It is unlikely to be your GP who does the syringing procedure, more likely the practise nurse. It certainly is at Forest Hill Rd surgery. Try explaining your problem and re-booking.


Also a word of caution regarding Otex etc. I had the same issue hiking in the Alps (and horribly painful too). I used Otex for a week with no success When I came back and had the syringe procedure it didn't work as the Otex had melted the wax, that had then re-congealed into a solid plug.


The nurse advised me to just use plain olive oil three times a day for a week. When I went back the wax had completely dissolved. Result.

I had similar issue last year after going on holiday. Went to GP to have ears cleaned out but they cant do anything until the wax has been softened. Was told to go and buy some olive oil drops form chemist and use these twice a day for 5 days then go back. Went to see the nurse 5 days later and she removed it all. Well worth doing the oil BEFORE you go to see GP as I doubt he will be able to do anything until you have softened it
Try the Clear Ear Clinic (clearearclinic.com). Not cheap, but you will have super hearing within five minutes, no fiddling about with drops and syringing! You can probably get an appointment the same day. This method puts nothing in the ear, just takes everything out. Painless apart from the price.

    • What is the reason for the change in name? Just curious.
    • Why change it?  You’ve got a fantastic historic, memorable name and you want to change it for something innocuous,  meaningless and empty
    • From the school newsletter:   A New Name for Dog Kennel Hill As you know we have been discussing and consulting with stakeholders about a  name change at DKH for a while. Following engagement with staff, pupils and  families, we gathered all views on a name change for the school and after  careful consideration of the feedback, the Local Committee and the Trust have  agreed with changing the school name to Grove Primary School from  September 2025.  Over the next few months we will begin a gradual process of changing our  name on signage, our website and emails etc. We will keep you updated.  We will be looking at designing a new logo to match the new school name and  will be working closely with a graphic designer to get creative. The school  council will be actively involved in this process. We will share the results with  you as soon as a design has been agreed and confirmed. We will be creating a  new school jumper to replace the old one, once the logo has been finalised. We  will phase this in over time.  We know that this is a welcoming change for some and that there are  parents and children who will be sad about the change. However, as a school  we think it will be a positive change for our school community and we will  work together to ensure that the ethos and culture of DKH will remain!
