Hi all

A friend has a six year-old boy who suffers from an excessive build-up of ear wax. Drops just have no affect at all. She usually has to bring him to a specialist every 6 months or so to have it removed but that's recently reduced to about 2-3 months.

Apart from the cost of this, his quality of life obviously suffers. I'm wondering if anyone might have suggestions for equipment that can be used at home more regularly?

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks

Dave
