Itchiness in the ears

2022-03-24 10:43:06
I experience itchiness in both my ears and scaly inner walls that can be felt on itching. Soon after rubbing my ears it gets blocked for some time due to some watery discharge. There's no hearing problem otherwise. Please advise a remedy.

As per your description it looks like seborrheic dermatitis. Check if you have any dandruff in the scalp. Get a consultation for treatment.
