When you talk about having your ears cleaned - are you talking about ear wax? A regualr doctor or the ENT or even over the counter (OTC) ear wax removal kits are available. A doctor will use a small wire hooked contraption that may cause a little discomfort because he/she will scrape the ear drum (tympanic membrane). The OTC stuff is an over night treatment usually and not uncomfortable. What does your audiogram look like if you don't mind my asking? Is you hearing loss frequency specific and bi-lateral (both ears)?
