My ear is paining very much. It all started 3-4 days ago. When I found that there is something blockade in my ear. Next day in morning I found that my ear is completely blocked it tried to clean with the help of cloth and a big portion of ear wax came out. Next day I bought ear buds to clean my ears but didn't worked much. Pain kept increasing. And 2 hours earlier I dropped some drop of salt water in my ear keeping my ear upwards and kept it in thia position for 5 minutes. To bring water out of my ear I turned my ear downward. It intensified the pain and now I feeling that there is still some water left in ear. I am using ear buds to clean water from my ear but it is not coming out and it is paining very much. Please help me.

Impacted wax has to be removed by syringing after instilling wax softening ear drops. This removal of wax has to be done only by an ENT surgeon. Please consult one at the earliest. It is not worth trying to remove the wax on your own. You might injure the ear drum in the process. The pain is on account of the impacted wax.
