Why are my ears so itchy?

Question

Lately my ears have been really itchy right down inside, sometimes almost like I want to scratch my throat and it will feel better. Is there a reason for this, and anything I can do (please don't say scratch them)? It's really annoying!!!

Answer 1

me and my cousin have the same problem, sometimes my ear gets so itchy i use a cotton bud to do itch it.

well she went to the docs and they told her its like eczema in the ear, just dry skin,

just make sure you dry your ears after every bath/shower or when you get your ears wet.

Answer 2

It could be eczema in you ear canals or wax build-up. Get your doc to peer down your earholes with a little lamp thingy.

Answer 3

try getting a treatment of Hopi ear candles--i know it sounds strange lol, but what it does is - it takes out most of the wax clogging up your ear and sorts out your sinuses --i've had it done and it does make a difference!!

good luck! x

Answer 4

It sounds like you are getting some sort of infection either in your sinuses or in your throat.  They are all connected.  You may want to make an appointment with your primary just to make sure.

Answer 5

they might have old shampoo and stuff in them, if so, just wash you shampoo out better = )

Answer 6

Clean them with a q-tip.

it could be wax build up.

Answer 7
