I've not being hearing with my right ear since birth.i've visited my doctors with no solution learnt there is no wax in the ear.any solution?

Congenital Hearing: Hearing loss for your whole life would be much more than just ear wax in the ear canal. If, as you write, you have had no hearing since birth then i would say you have a congenital birth defect and any good ENT specialist should be able to confirm specifically what this means for you.
