Are you sure it's because of the wax??it can also be due to injury caused by you if you tried cleaning using buds
Next Steps
visit your nearest ENT specialist.. he will prescribe the appropriate drops depending on the cause
Health Tips
do not self clean using ear buds...the stick causes injury to the skin and also the ear drum if inserted too deep...use just cotton rolled into a wick after wetting it slightly
