Small pebble size object fell out of my ear after showering. when i had first woken up, i had pain and couldn't hear in that ear. what could it be?

Ear wax?: If it's brownish-green, it's probably just dried earwax, especially if your hearing improved afterward. However, this usually isn't painful. If pain continues or you have any discharge or wetness from the ear, see your doctor. Good luck.
