My husband has new external hearing aids, the phonak brand. can any of the materials used to make them cause a topical allergic reaction?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Contact reactions: The dermatitis that can occur in the ear could be a contact dermatitis and this could be due to irritation or due allergy to a chemical in the ear piece. The company has a support line and could help. Avoid using other materials that could be irritants such as cleaners
