Question

I'm a bit worried because I was cleaning my ears and some cotton from the earbud got stuck in my right ear. I'm not sure how to remove it myself. Could you advise me on what to do? Or maybe suggest a nearby doctor I can visit to get it taken care of? I live in Palava City, Dombivili East, Thane, 421204.
