blomme, some times a sinus infection or an allergy can makes an ear feel like it is blocked. That has happened to me.
As others have mentioned, tell your doctor.

I would call the doctor and tell him. Like said, there is no healing. Just removal of the wax. Maybe you are losing hearing in that ear.

Heal? There shouldn't be any healing to be done, not just from ear wax removal. If your ear does not feel right tell your doctor as soon as possible.
