Please get your ear checked it might be was also, can lead to ear itching and decreased hearing both. Or it can be ear infection also. Don’t use earbuds and it can push ear wax further inside .

Hi. Your symptom could be due to your habit of ear probing itself. There are several issues with ear probing. 1. You are putting your ear at risk by removing the protective ear wax ( yes !!! Ear wax is a main protection for your ear ) 2. You might push the ear wax deep inside your ear that may end up causing a block. 3. Repeated ear probing causes many tiny injuries in the ear canal, that might cause repeated ear itching and infection ( it's a vicious cycle). So the key point is " Never probe your ear " ... Not even with soft cotton buds.

Please get done physical examination once. Do not try to clean your ear by yourself.
