He may be having impacted wax inside his ear canal and it may be causing problems such S itching. Self cleaning can cause injuries to ear canal which causes pain. Ideally minimal amount of wax need not be removed and can be left.
Next Steps
Consult nearby ENT specialist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required
