Ear wax: Yes impacted ear wax can causes headaches and also balance issues. when its impacted most of the otc remedies usually do not work. Its best to have the was dis-impacted by a doctor or even an audiologist. Do not try to insert anything into the ear canal as you may cause damage to the ear drum.
