Complaining of itchy ear

My son always says that his ears are itching. Consulted a doctor and he cleaned his ears and said his ears are fine. A few days after again he is complaining of an itchy ear and asks us to clean with earbuds. His ears looks clean after cleaning by the doctor and now no discharge nothing but still he asks to rub with earbuds. Please suggest remedies.

N Fowleri risk from water

Sorry for asking again but I request humbly please alay my fear that if while drinking water I blew my nose accidently because there was a fly that sat on my nose, will blowing my nose while drinking water cause any water to go up the nose to cause N Fowleri infection? I was eating outside in a dhaba and so the water might not be that clean.

Concern about infection risk

Today my mother had boiled potatoes, but after boiling she washed it with non chlorinated water from the sink to cool them down instead of the RO water we use for cooking. As I was peeling the potatoes and mashing them to a fine paste, some droplets from the plate kept splashing in my nose throughout. Now I am worried that since the droplets kept splashing and I was breathing in and sometimes due to applying pressure breathing a bit heavily too and then later sneezed can the droplets get sucked up deep into the upper nasal passages or to the olfactory nerves and cause N Fowleri infection as it's summer?

Infection risk probability

I had consulted a couple of doctors and even after the high fees they hardly answer your queries and they were barely aware about N Fowleri infection risk. I am grateful to Doctors who clear my doubts here. Big thank you. Sorry for repeated queries, psychologist can't help as in past for panic attacks I had tried consulting one. Is it possible that if some dirty water or unchlorinated water drops fall into the mouth and nose while laughing and if we cough or gasp, inhale a bit deeply by mistake like in a sneeze or while trying to stop a cough, can we get infected if N Fowleri present in the water drops? Can one get infected while brushing teeth with unchlorinated water?
