You might be suffering from acute otitis externa which is a common type of ear infection. After removing wax abraded skin can get infected causing pus formation. You may need to take antibiotics and painkillers along with antibiotic ear drops
Next Steps
Consult nearby ENT specialist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required. Meanwhile you can use candibiotic ear drops three drops three times daily
