Itchiness or pruritus in the ear may be due to infections, allergy, cerumen or other causes. When the pruritus is due to a particular reason it is called secondary pruritus. When any reason cannot be found it is called primary pruritus. Treatment of pruritus varies accordingly. So you must consult a good ENT doctor to know the cause of the itchiness, only then can it be managed properly.
