    ITCHY EARS

    The inside of my one ear is constantly itching. When I get check ups the doctor tells me my ears are wax free and clean. There are no hairs inside my ears and as far as I know, nothing has crawled inside my ear with a feather. Driving me nuts. Any answers?

    Causes of itchy ear canals: Allergies People who experience seasonal allergies are more prone to itchy ear canals. This occurs from histamine release, an allergy related chemical that also causes the irritated, watery eyes commonly seen with allergies. The symptoms may be relieved by taking an over-the-counter antihistamine. Causes of itchy ear canals: Fungal infections Fungi can occasionally infect the ear canals causing itching and irritation. This is more common in swimmers and in people who frequently expose their ears to water. Keeping the ear canals dry and using an anti-fungal medication is the best treatment. Causes of itchy ear canals: Skin conditions Common skin conditions such as eczema, seborrheic dermatitis, and psoriasis can also affect the ear canals. This is more likely to be the case if there's a history of allergy or psoriasis affecting other skin areas. Psoriasis involving ear canals can cause significant scaling and blockage that can reduce hearing and may require professional irrigation of the canals. Severe eczema or seborrheic dermatitis of the ear canals may require use of steroid cream or drop to relieve the itching and irritation. Occasionally, itching and irritation of the ear canals can be due to sensitivity to certain hairsprays or shampoo.
