Could my Tinnitus still be ear wax

I got my ear syringed back in July and Three days after I got it done I was lying in bed and my ear kind of scraped against my pillow I think I may of got ear wax back into my ear...

Your ears produce wax all the time. It's unlikely (but not impossible) that you'd have produced enough in 4mths to block them up again, but's easily checked - ask your GP or find yourself a local private practice who can have a peek for you to see what's what. Clearwax - clearwax.co.uk/ - have clinics across the country and have a particularly nifty little endoscope to look in your ear and you can see it as well on the computer screen as they're doing it.

Hello there.

It's unlikely that ear wax got into your ear from your pillow, but in some people ear wax can build up very quickly. You should get it checked out by a professional - do not go poking around your ear yourself, as you could impact the wax, or damage your ear drum.

We have information on ear wax removal at tinnitus.org.uk/ear-wax or you can call our helpline on 0800 018 0527

Warmest wishes
