Right ear blocked
It has been 5 days since my ear is blocked. It opened once but got blocked again. I went to the chemist shop and asked for an ear drop. I got clear wax. When I googled up the medicine it showed that this medicine was to be used in case of any injury in the ear. I used it twice. Now I am using ciplox ear drop. Today I noticed that there is a slight swelling behind my ear. Due to complete lock down I am unable to visit any clinic. Please assist.

It can be wax or infection  or  water accumulation behind the ear drum or infection.  May need antibiotics depending on severity.  Can use the drops and put otrivin nasal drop thrice daily for 5 days
