Hello,
Your symptoms seem to be related to an allergic reaction.
I suggest using antihistamines such as Cetirizine.
I also suggest using a Calamine lotion for local application at the ear area.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
