Dr. is probably the best but...I too have allergies and recently my left ear was plugged up. I thought it would go away but after about 2 weeks and it didn't get better I started to flush my ear with hydrogen peroxide (3%) and warm water. I flushed it out 2-3x a day for 3 days and my ear recovered and has been fine since.
Another simple home remedy: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ear_candling
I've seen this done....it warms excessive ear wax and draws it out.....about a quarter pound....cleared up the hearing issue on the person.
These are a couple of home remedies worth trying, but you really need to go to a doctor. If you don't have one, Doc in a Box visits are pretty inexpensive....like other suggestions here, if you don't have wax on the outside of the drum, you likely have an ear infection, water build up on the inside or a sinus infection....that only a course of anti's (biotics) can cure.
