Wax interferes?

Some small doubts. I have a lot of wax in my ear, the audiologist told me. And I said to go to the clinic to remove the wax. I can hear with the devices, but it gives a little feedback on the left device. My co-workers cope in moments of silence. Wax interferes with speech understanding. The audiologist put some bigger molds on me to close my ear well and not give feedback. The feedback happens because of the wax.

My audiologist has to remove wax from my ears about every 4 months. The wax build up varies with the weather and my activity. But removing it can make a huge difference. Somewhat related, if I put my hearing aids in too soon after a shower before my ears dry, the wax will plug the and I get no sound. Replacing the wax filter fixes the problem.

I normally have my have my ear wax removed 3 times a year, with micro suction, which is becoming more expensive each time I go. I purchased this little machine I was sceptical at first, but so far it has worked. It’s adjustable from very gentle to a little more pressure and pulse. Had my ears checked yesterday, they are clear. Not for everyone I know.

I bought mine from Temu, exact same for less than half Amazon price.
