I use to goto the doctors office to get this done but you can do this easily at home if it happens again.
1. Stop using cotton swabs - it just pushes the earwax in.
2. Goto your local pharmacy and look for a home ear irrigation kit. It comes with a solution usually and a syringe made for ear flushing. Get some hydrogen peroxide (the ones at the store with 3% in it) - do a few drops in your ear and let it sit there for 5-10 mins (you will hear the bubbling). This will loosen the earwax - fill the syringe with water and flush that sucker out. You might need to do this a few times in each ear to get all the earwax out.
