Yet again, another reason not to stick anything smaller than an elbow into your ear!. You impacted wax onto your ear drum!. It's not going to come out by itself because it's too far in the canal, so I'd suggest heading to your nearest Audiologist, doctor or ENT to get it removed!.
And don't ever use q-tips again!. A moist washcloth should be used to clean off the OUTSIDE of the canal opening, but you should never stick anything in your ear!. Your body cleans the wax out of your ear naturally!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

one of my friends was doing this, while jumping on his bed a while ago ( odd combination i know)!. but now he is hard of hearing in that ear!. I dont know if this is your case or not but you probably should get it checked out!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Actually I just did the same thing!. That's why ENT's will always tell you NOT to use Q-tips for cleaning out ears!. I still do anyway!. Just give the wax a few days to try and clear out of the ear drum, it was pushed back due to the Q-Tip!. It feels weird and echo-e but it should move on it's own!. If it doesn't clear up in a few days then go see a ENT to suck out the wax buildup!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
