What Is The Reason For White Blockage In Ear Without Hearing Loss?

I have a white blockage in my ear. My wife can see it using a flashlight, no magnification needed. I'm not sure if it is wax as it does not seem to be responding to the at-home ear cleaning solution for the past 5 days. My hearing is okay, no fever or other symptoms of infection.
