Hi. I'm an Audiologist.
It is possible that if the was is fully occluding in your ear, and then you move your jaw in such a way as to dislodge it, you could hear popping or crackling sounds. If that is accompanied by a change in pressure, it could lead to some ringing (tinnitus).
However, there are other possible causes, so the best way to know what's going on is to have an experienced professional look in your ear. Your family doctor may or may not be comfortable removing wax build-up, but if your insurance requires a referral, you need to start there anyway. If you have any prolonged hearing loss, tinnitus, spinning dizziness (vertigo), pain or fever, then a visit to an ear specialist (otolaryngologist) is recommended.
