Brief Answer:
Cerumen or wax
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
It is only temporary hearing loss because of wax. You should put DEWAX one drop thrice a day for five days. After this you should see a doctor for wax removal.
I advice not to attempt to clear it on your own, many a time you will end up harming.
Hope this helps.
