Many people state that they like the sensation of microsuctioning in their ear, finding it soothing and their ears feel clean. Ear microsuctioning, is very gentle and immediately restores hearing. If tinnitus is present due to the ear canal being blocked, this is often alleviated when the wax blockage is removed. When the probe is in the ear canal the sound has been described like a wind-like noise and with the latest suction machines the noise is further reduced. If the wax is very soft a soft sucking sound can be heard as the debris is sucked up the probe and into the tube.
