This condition runs in my family. My father had this, and had to have the wax removed every couple of years. I had this done when I was 12 myself.
What you need to do is spend about a week softening the wax plug with warmed baby oil. Put enough in it twice a day to fill the ear, then block it inside with a cotton ball. (Once in the morning and again before you go to bed.)
After a week, the plug will be softened enough that it will come out easily when you use a 10cc syringe to wash it out. Make up a sterile solution of water lightly salted and boiled for 10 minutes. Let stand until lukewarm.
Fill the 10 cc syringe (which should be available from your pharmacy) with the sterile water. While you lay down on your back, with a shallow basin to catch the liquid that comes out of your ear under your head, have someone insert the end of the syringe shallowly into your ear (no needles attached of course) and plunge the sterile water strongly down into your ear (making sure not to block the ear canal with the syringe). It should wash down behind the wax plug and push it right out.
It may take a couple of tries to get all of it out.
