Ear Information
Pro-Hearing Center:
Welcome to Pro-Hearing Center. We look forward to working with you Today....
Hearing Loss:
A type of chronic otitis media. A long-term build-up of thick or sticky fluid in the middle ear behind the eardrum causes hearing loss. This can make socialising and learning difficult, especially if hearing loss is not recognised in early childhood.
Cerumen/
Protects the ear and is normal. However, a build-up of wax may be a problem in some adults, and may require wax-softening ear drops. Sometimes the ears may also need to be syringed clean by a doctor. Impacted ear wax rarely causes an ear discharge or pain, but it may cause hearing impairment.
Swimmer’s ear:

Develops when humidity, heat and moisture cause the skin layer inside the ear to swell. The addition of further water, for example, through swimming, makes the skin lining the ear canal even softer and liable to infection. Attempts to remove the water with cotton buds or other objects may make the condition worse, causing pain and itching.
