What Causes Pain And Clogged Feeling In Ear After Using OTC Wax Removal?
I had been having on again off again pains in my ears and ringing and other sounds. I went to the doctor and he said I had wax build up and should use over the counter wax removal. I did this and my left ear is fine but my right ear is very painful and feels clogged. I can t bite my teeth down because my ear hurts. About 10 years ago I also tried ear wax removal and the same thing happened to my right ear....I think I just stopped using ear wax removal immediately and it eventually got better. Is there something I can do to make it better and/or take the pain away?

Hello
The pain will come down , once the wax is removed and for this i would like you to meet your ent doctor, please dont try to remove it on your own. You can take tablet paracetamol 500 mg 2-3 times a day for the pain.
Take care!
