Wax: Could be several things including ear wax, fluid, infection or unequal pressure between the interior of your skull and the environment. Have your doc just look in ear canal for answer.

E tube obstruction: With severe allergy and congestion of the nasal passages, the eustachian tube leading into the middle ear can be obstructed and stick together, causing the sensation of popping, or cracking. It is difficult to treat and I have used oral steroids as well as nasal steroids or decongestant sprays in a modified proetz maneuver to open up sticky eustastian tubes.
