Ear clogged from past 3 days

2020-07-01 16:53:55
My ear clogged from past 3 days. One day I wake up my one right ear feel like blocked I was thinking it's due to wax. I cleaned my ear wax from ear bud on the same day. I noticed my ear wax is far more from the normal it takes 10-15 buds to clean one ear. Since then my right ear blocked and mild pain in my right side of head from past 2 days. I try almonds drop twice a week but nothing happened. I also noticed one thing when I burp or hiccup my ear unclogged or unblock for few seconds and when burp is over it remains clogged. Please help me I am student I am not able to attend class as I am not able hear from that ear. Please prescribed some ear drops or medicine.
