Blood Pressure
Readings Explained

Blood pressure measures the pressure of the blood in your arteries when your heart beats and when it relaxes. You likely already know that your blood pressure is important, and that it can affect your health in many ways.
When a healthcare professional takes your blood pressure, it’s expressed as a measurement with two numbers, one number on top (systolic) and one on the bottom (diastolic), like a fraction. For example, 120/80 mm Hg.

01. Your systolic pressure

Your ears are impressive in many ways, including the fact that they are self-cleaning. Because of this, you usually won’t need to worry about removing earwax. It only becomes a problem if your ears are producing too much of it.

02. Your diastolic pressure

  • 1 Narrow ear canals
  • 2 Ear infections
  • 3 Swimmer’s ear
  • 4 Using hearing aids

What’s considered a normal reading?

A normal blood pressure reading for an adult is blood pressure that’s below 120/80 mm Hg and above 90/60 mm Hg. When your systolic pressure is between 120 and 129 mm Hg and your diastolic pressure is less than 80 mm Hg, it means you have elevated blood pressure.
Symptoms to look out for include
  • Chest Pain
  • Shortness of Breath
  • Visual Changes
  • Blood in Your Urine
  • Dizziness
  • Headache

Frequently asked questions

Ear microsuction is a simple process which entails the use of a gentle vacuum machine to leave the ear dry and free of wax. The end results for the patient are better hearing and cleaner ears.
Most of the time, our ears keep themselves clean and free of dust and debris, but there are occasions when it doesn’t happen, your age or a possible infection might cause a build up. If you have a wax build-up, an infection or some unwanted debris in the ear, our pharmacists may decide the best way to make things right is via ear microsuction.
In general the procedure isn’t painful at all, although it can be somewhat noisy. The skin inside the ear canal is sensitive so it’s important to stay still when asked to do so.
Because the process is carried out with the help of a powerful microscope, more wax and other debris can be reached and removed. The procedure tends to be quicker and more comfortable than other forms of wax removal. The main benefit after is usually a significant improvement in hearing.
Many people choose to have an ear microsuction procedure on a regular basis to keep their ears cleaned, although the regularity always depends on the individual needs of the patient. Some choose to undergo microsuction every three months while others may do so once a year.
