Family practice : You should get it checked for cerumen. How ever you probably have an eustachion tube dysfunction from your viral infection. It may get swelling around it and plug it up.

Thanks for asking!: Very likely that the difficulty hearing is related to the cold. Wax usually would not cause sudden difficulty hearing. Please contact a primary care doctor if it does not improve in few days.
