I woke this morning and heard a sound in my ear kinda like the sound you ear when your picking your ears with a Q-tip. At first I didn't think much of it because I thought it would go away after a nice shower. So right about now which is 2 hours later...I hear it come and go. It LITERALLY feels like theres a tiny bug or something in my earwax that is moving around and stopping at certain places then continuing to truck on. It's VERY irritating and if anyone would have any suggestions or ideas as to what this is it would be greatly appreciated.
its a spasm of the middle ear muscles

Thank you for the reply, about 3-4 hours later it stopped completely until about an hour ago it happened for a brief second. This isn't anything I should be worried about right?
no, it can not hurt you at all. usually resolves on its own. mine was extreme and i ended up having the muscles severed.

You can also look into the ear wax cleaning kits that dissolve the wax in the outer ear canal. My husband and son have heavy ear wax production, this causes similar sensations except do to trapped water in the out ear. Using swimmear after your bath/shower and he ear wax removal kit might be the way to go.
Best of luck.
