I am sorry to hear about your concern but will be happy to assist you.
If ear wax was removed, it can cause a small scratch inside the ear canal. This happens about 10% of the time. The scratch oozes 1 or 2 drops of blood and then clots. This should heal up in a few days.
Let's connect over a call so that we can discuss your concern in details and make a suitable treatment plan for you.

I think baby oil is best
put few drops of baby oil in one ear ,allow to soak wax for five minutes, then tilt the head to remove oil. Do same for other side also.

Dear lybrate-user, relax and calm down. Most likely you have impacted wax in your ear which is why you have pain, also chronic inflammation/infection of the middle ear. Please consult your nearby specialist so that a proper examination of your ear may be done using otoscope (like stethescope, and a proper diagnosis be made, so that appropiate treatment can start.

This requires surgery after close examination of your ear for which you may consult with your nearby specialist or feel free to book an appointment with me so that further details of your ear problem can be discussed.

As our nose is the most sensitive part of our body, when there is temperature difference between two rooms or inside n outside, then if we not protect our nose, it gets affected.
4. Drink hot liquids --hot liquids relieve nasal congestion, prevent dehydration, and soothe the uncomfortably i...more

Putting oil or water isn't going to help in anyway and can further risk infection. Depending on the duration and associated symptoms, your brother will need appropriate ear drops; even full course of antibiotics may be necessary. However, if it isn't due to external infection, there might be an even serious problem. Please consult the nearest ent specialist right away.
