My right ear has had a clogged feeling for 10 days i have not been sick or had any allergy issues recently why is my ear clogged & when to see dr??

Ear problems: I would see a doc as soon as it is convenient. This is not an emergency so within a week. Clogged ears can be caused by many things ranging from ear wax to middle ear fluid to an ear infection. None of these are urgent issues.

Ear wax.: You should see your doctor to check your ear to make sure of the cause. It could be an ear infection with fluid build-up behind the ear drum or, even more likely, a build-up of wax in the ear canal. Do not use Qtips or other home therapy....see the doctor for proper diagnosis and treatment.
