The itching of the ear

The ear can also be the source of an itching disorder , so much so that it forces us to unadvisable and rudimentary scratching to find a modicum of relief, a dangerous action often suddenly entrusted to a frantic finger, and a harbinger of worsening due to possible local infection.
It should be mentioned that itching is a symptom of a few possible causes, including an infection of the outer ear, otitis resulting in inflammation, a viral or fungal infection, or, more simply, an occlusion from a plug of earwax in the ear canal.
It is important to be followed by the ENT specialist.

If the problem is cerumen occlusion, removal of the plug with warm water will suffice, but if the problem is more serious, immediate drug treatment will be needed to prevent the damage produced by the infection from creating consequences in the inner ear.
