Of course, if Doctors and their surgeries were still doing simple things like cleaning out our ear wax then we (the public) wouldn't be considering poking about blindly applying weird and wonderful devices to our own ears just so that we can attend an appointment for being fitted with hearing aids.

I wonder, how much is being spent at A&E solving problems created by this? I bet it works out more than it would attending the Doctor in the first place.
