Ask your doctor: for an ear drop medication called "Cortisporin" Drops. You may have a "dandruff -like" condition in your ear(s) Hope this helps! Dr Z

Ear wax?: Everyone produces differing amounts of ear wax, and the amount of wax often does NOT impact whether you itch or not. Itching of the ear canal is annoying because it is hard to get to and often tough to see exactly what is causing the itch because of the small area to visualize. After an exam, a common Rx with a steroid drop for the ear canal is often curative.
