Too much ear wax in ear
Sir/Mam, for the past few days my ear gets closed up after bathing. I have to manually remove water and some ear wax to open them.
Also today, they did not open till late afternoon. I have no pain and no history of any kind of ear problem although I had my ear cleaned up once when I was a kid. Please suggest something.

Hello There.
I can understand your concern,
kindly get your ear cleaned by a ENT surgeon. there may be too much wax or the wax may be impacted.
wear ear plugs when you bathe so that water does not enter the ear.
there are ear drops available by name soliwax you can put those ear drops also thrice a day for 3 days. those drops will help in dissolving the wax in the ear.
if it still persist, consult a ENT surgeon.
best regards,
