There is a probablity you might still have some wax that got swollen with water. If you are sure there are no wax there then it might be a eustachian tube dysfunction ( try Valsalva ear exercise and nasal steam inhalation). Otherwise if you still feel there are wax then try wax dissolving ear drops (eg: soliwax or clearwax)
