Itching can be due to lot of reasons..... most commonly it can be fungal infections in the ear . The drops prescribed is broad spectrum drops ... it is antibacterial anti fungal steroidal drops so you can’t pin point the cause because it can either bacteria or fungus growth . Next step is you getting your ear checked by a nearby ENT specialist and see if have any debris or discharge in your ears which needed to be cleaned before you apply drops . Finally , If have any discharge in your ears, you can send the discharge for pus culture and sensitivity and get to know the cause of your infections & which medicine is sensitive to it or can kill the organism .Hope this helps .
