I feel water coming out of my left ear and when it dry it turn in to wax?

Wet wax: What you are feeling is wax that is soft and melted by your body heat. You can use peroxide in your ear every 3 to 4 days. Let it bubble for 3 to 5 mins. You may use a hair dryer to dry the ear canal after you let it drain out. Make sure the hair dryer is at a low setting and not too hot to burn the ear drum. Good luck and feel better!
