Let's talk about... ear wax

You can try over-the-counter ear wax drops and see if that helps. I've used them before flights. Worth a shot.

 
knapplc's suggestion is good. The cost at the doctor depends on your medical coverage - mine cost virtually nothing.

You can also purchase systems similar to what doctors use online (reference Colorado Husk's post above) but I'd be incredibly cautious. The nurse went way past recommended q-tip depth and all the way into the inner ear, but she was a trained professional. You could hurt yourself if you do something wrong.

 
I tried out the Elephant Ear flusher on myself last night. Not much came out, but I did become a little dizzy. I made sure to use warm/hot water. I will try it again with a mixture of peroxide and water. Maybe the peroxide will help loosen things up in the ear canal, or maybe I have clean ears.
