My left AirPod is louder than the right one

I recently received a pair of AirPods for Christmas, and they worked great for about 2 weeks until suddenly my left one sounded horrible. So, we replaced it though the mail. Once I got the new one, it sounded fine again. However, about a week after that, the other AirPod, the one I didn’t replace, started sounding quiet. I have tried literally everything online. I sucked on it, I reset, I unpaired,restarted phone,checked balance, etc. nothing works. Please help me I don’t want to replace my other AirPod. Thanks

Troubleshooting this Connection:

It probably keeps losing the signal due to earwax, making it just fall out. That is a typical reason for using the connection.
