You may be having associated eustachian tube dysfunction which usually occurs secondary to common cold. Wax might have been incidental finding. Usually this condition resolves on its own within few days. You can use decongestant medicines for few days for faster recovery. A pure tone audiogram and tympanogram will confirm the diagnosis
Next Steps
Consult nearby ENT specialist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required
