Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for the query.

I have read your query and understand your concern.

After reading your clinical history it appears that you are most probably having diffuse otitis externa .

If I were your treating Doctor for this case , I would advice you
Keep ear dry , don’t allow water go inside while bath &
Stop cleaning ear with ear bud .
Use antibiotic + steroid ear drop thrice daily for itching & swelling in ear .

I would advice you , consult ENT specialist as soon as possible & get ear examination & cleaning done .

Hope this information helpful to you .If you have any further questions I will be happy to help.
