This! I get this too, and after a few times at the doctor's, I do it at home now. If it's really bad and you've gotten water behind the wax plug there can be infection and swelling, in which case five days of antibiotic drops first helps a bunch, but after that you just can get the OTC drops and syringe and do it yourself. Just be careful to use warm water and not hot, or else you'll get the massive dizzies.
