What Could Cause Itchy Right Ear?

Right ears have been very itchy for the past 4days and it just doesnt go away. I ve tried using Qtips but theres nothing. I ve tried my best not to scratch it as it might hurt the epidermis inside the ears. But this thing is really bothering me. Is there any solution to it??

Hi , as per your clinical history it appears as you are having diffuse otitis externa due to ear bud use.
Stop using Q tips.
Keep ear dry (don't put any ear drop) , Keep ear dry donot allow water go inside while bath.
Use Ciplox D ear drop & Antihistaminic levocetirizine .

If you don’t get relief , ENT examination become essential.

Hope this helps , Thanks.
