See family physician: You may have solidified ear wax, a dead insect, coagulated blood from a small clot, and so on. Your family physician can look and pull it out in two minutes. Go get both ears checked, and get this taken care of. Do not put q-tips or other pointy objects into your ear canal...It could push the item further in.
