A member asked:
The skin inside one of my ears is very dry and flaky and there is a very small amount of moisture that builds up in that ear all the time. i have to use a q-tip to wipe it out of the canal but it builds right back up.?

DRY EAR SKIN?: Simple moisturizers may help but the constant wetness needs evaluated in order to eradicate it.
