I knew I had wax build up in my ears especially left ear because my hearing is blocked.?

Question

So, I used 3 ear wax candles in my left ear to suck the wax out. But after using the candles, I did remove some wax, but my hearing did not get any better. So, I rushed to urgent care. The Doctor removed and cleaned both my ears 3 days ago. But, I still have my left hearing blocked and now I hear buzzing sound. The doctor prescribed Neomycin-Polymyxin-Hc Ear Soln. to put 3 drops into both ears 3 times daily for 5 days. I'm just worried if I'm having hearing loss or this buzzing sound & hearing blockage is due to inflammation of my ear and I just have to give it time to get better. Please advise.

You need to go back to your Doctor, a wax blockage can recur and if it starts to get regular then your Doctor will have to investigate further to find the cause.

Wax is seriously the biggest pain in the ***. I mean, wax is mostly fats, and so soluble in liquid fats. For example, putting olive oil in your ear (bear with me) can dissolve the wax. Just make sure that you wash out all of the olive oil, or it will basically turn into more wax. So just wash it all out thoroughly. Also it could be inflammation.
