Why did my ear got clogged again suddenly?

So about 2 months ago, I got an deep ear wax cleaning because both of my ears were clogged so my doctor removed a lot of wax and my ears felt like new again. The reason they were clogged was because I used to clean my ears with cotton swabs, but now I do NOT use them to clean them anymore. I never used them again since they cleaned my ears.

But now one ear is clogged again, once again I do not use cotton swabs anymore. I clean my ears when showering and just clean the outside of my ear, I do not stick my finger inside. So how should I unclogged my ear or should I go visit my doctor again?

    Get DeBrox from your drug store.

    Put it in about 30 minute before showering if you can.  

    Some people produce more wax or their wax isn’t soft and drains. Some people have ear canals  that do not aid in getting rid of the wax.

    Simple vegetable or mineral oil softens wax a lot. Just lie on your side. put in some oil, and let it sit there for ten minutes or so. Then you can stand under a hot shower and direct a stream into each ear.

    Hydrogen Peroxide also does a great job of softening and breaking up ear wax. It crackles and sizzles, but it doesn't hurt.

    Pressure in the ear canal.
