Are you sure it's because of the wax??it can also be due to injury caused by you if you tried cleaning using buds

Next Steps

visit your nearest ENT specialist.. he will prescribe the appropriate drops depending on the cause

Health Tips

do not self clean using ear buds...the stick causes injury to the skin and also the ear drum if inserted too deep...use just cotton rolled into a wick after wetting it slightly
