Itching and ear irritation can occur secondary to fungal infection, wax inside ear, allergy, and also teething. Unless ear is examined directly it is difficult to comment on diagnosis. You need to visit nearby ENT specialist if symptoms persist
Next Steps
Consult nearby ENT specialist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required
