What Causes Severe Itching In Ears With Swollen Glands In Neck?
Hi, may I answer your health queries right now ? Please type your query here...Hi i have had a long problem which started with my ears being ichy and the problem just stayed there even with alot of visits to my doctor with alot of different answers and now i my glands in my neck are up and have been for a long time but not sure if they have been up since the problem started with my ears. It has worried me but im not one of the best people that can explain to a doctor what is going on with me. the other problem i have had with my ears is they make like a thumpping sound in my ear on the left when i hear a high pitch sound like when im making myself a drink and sturring my drink in a mug and the spoon hits the mug making a high pitch chime. I dont feel ill i feel fine but am confussed and worried i am still seeing my doctor about this but they do appear to be at a lost i am yet to ask to see a ear nose and throat specialist. just wont another insight into this.
As per your query you have severe itching in ears with swollen glands in neck . Well there can be many reasons for itching like slightest accumulation of debris, even a dead hair, may be felt as an itching sensation ear canal dermatitis , otitis media , lymphadenopathy and wax buildup . Allergic reaction can also be one of the reasons.
I would suggest you to consult ENT specialist for proper examination . Doctor may order CT scan and examine with otoscope . Doctor may prescribe antibiotics gentamycin for a week along with corticosteroid ear drops , anti histamine and may remove wax .
For now you can put 2 drops of olive oil once a day to prevent dryness and cover your ear while bathing .
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon. Best Wishes, Dr. Harry Maheshwari
