think something is wrong - if you are talking cerumen impaction, the doc is not looking in his nose; could be "gross cerumen impaction" if looking in ears, but not sinuses -

any ENT MTs who know if there is another product, other than Debrox, or Cerumenix (which was by RX only, but discontinued) to remove chronic earwax, other than going to the ENT to have them irrigated and removed with a curette?


I can't seem to find any drug on the market; prescription or otherwise, other than those mentioned above, which were of no benefit.


Your help is greatly appreciated.  Thanks.

Doc is an ESL (and a pretty good speaker but the sound quality isn't the best), and he sounds like he says he's using a seeramick (spelled phonetically) to remove a BB from this child's ear.  I've searched my ENT and equipment books as well as googled and am having no luck finding this.  I thought maybe it was his way of pronouncing ceramic, but I don't even know if there is such a thing as a ceramic curette.  He's definitely not saying serrated.  Any ideas?
