Crawling/bug like sensation in left ear. 2 ent visits. removed small hair but ear continues to so call itch. coly-mycin s did not work. now what????

Nerve: If ENT specialist couldn't detect a problem, the cause could be an irritable superficial nerve in the ear canal. If this is the case, it should resolve without specific treatment. In the meantime try applying a cortisone containing cream or ointment like cortisporin (neomycin polymyxin and hydrocortisone) applied with a q tip.
