Having ear problem
Ear hurts while I put pressure or do exercise for tinnitus, I check the wax was inside my ear but the path wasn't fully blocked, when I burp or anything it hurts my ear, I do have ear wax problem , it gets build up or I just push it more inside by inserting finger, I tried to use tissue and fold it to look pointy and when I use i felt ease and wax did come out but now next day I have pain too. I can't visit doctor rn but it hurts and the sound in both ears troubles me. Help me pls. And even outside my ear putting pressure hurts

First up - Don’t insert anything in the ear
Second steam inhalation wil help
It definitely looks like Eustachian tube catarrh but I also feel there’s impacted wax
So water entry to ear is completely prohibited
Kindly consult ENT for further evaluation
