Subject: cerumen in sinuses

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 -

type of suction involving nasal sinuses
Subject: type of suction involving nasal sinuses

It does reveal maxillary sinus mucopurulence and I cultured this area of yellow drainage and submitted it for aerobic and anaerobic and fungal cultures. I then suctioned the area with _Venalia _ suction under endoscopic guidance and suctioned all debris from the nose and maxillary sinus.


Thanks for helping.  I've tried Stedman's and google and can't seem to locate it!

Subject: Speaking of ears clogged with cerumen, are there

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.
