Ear problems: It is less likely to be a piece of earwax. If you are having tinnitus and if it is one sided then it needs to be examined. Sometimes allergies or congestion can also cause this. Please get it examined.

I have clicking/popping sound in ear when I burp Im almost 99% sure it isnt ear wax. I also have sudden onset tinnitus in right ear no noticeable hearing loss. Could it be Eustachian Tube dysfunction and glue ear?
