Impacted wax needs to be softened and usually I prescribe some wax solvents for 3 days and later call for ear syringing. Stimulation of nerve cause giddiness if not done in correct method. Ear should be examined again for remaining impaction.

U should show the doctor you visited again to see if there is still some discharge etc causing the blocked sensation and probably some hearing tests if required.
