An impacted/infected wax causes pain in ear,wax dissolvants are used to make wax soft before cleaning.Put wax dissolvants (eg olive oil) 2_3 times daily,pain killers sos( tylenol),put ciprofloxacin with dexamethasone combination ear drops on alternate days.Then meet your ent doctor for ear cleaning.
