My ears have been itching like crazy. it doesn't itch behind my ears or scalp. ointments and creams hasn't helped. any ideas/thoughts to what it is?

Allergy or dry skin: Dry skin can certainly cause ithy ears. Try olive oil in an eye dropper to the ears. If this doesn't work, explore allergy treatments. This can include a different oral antihistamine you are taking.
