What to do if i have ear candling made my ears itch?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Ear Candling: Greetings. The contact with the ear candle has probably caused the reaction. Do yourself a favor and stop wasting money on candling of the ears. There is no scientific base behind this treatment. The wax you see after is in the ear candle itself. There have been documented ear trauma events from a burn to the skin from candling. Debrox ear drops and see your doctor for irrigation if needed.
