I'm really worried what could it be? My right inner ear is a bit swollen but there is no pain. I was reading other people's problems and I think it's because I used a q-tip and it pushed the earwax in.

more likely you created micro tears with that qtip and they got infected. suggest you see a doctor before that infection spreads.

I've done something like that before. When I used a q-tip, I guess it somehow created a tear in my ear canal. What happens is that some fluids come out of that tear and drips deeper into the ear canal, creating an infection. You should go see a doctor and don't ever try to fix it yourself! You do NOT want to feel that pain.

never stick anything into your ear. visit an urgent care for evaluation and treatment.
