Wax if impacted can't be removed in home. First it needs to be softened using  wax softener ear drops for few days. Then you need to consult nearby ENT specialist so that he can remove it easily either by suctioning or syringing
Next Steps
Consult nearby ENT specialist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required
