You might be suffering impacted wax inside your ear canal which might be blacking the canal. Treatment depends on confirmation of diagnosis and if confirmed wax needs to be removed under vision
Next Steps
Consult nearby ENT specialist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required. Meanwhile you can use Otorex ear drops to soften the wax so that ENT specialist can remove it easily
