Itchy inner ear

Question

Itchy inner ear

Asked for Male, 28 Years

Since last 7-8 days I am facing issues with itchy inner ear. I assume that it could be due to continues use of earbuds(almost 8-10hours) during work calls. As a home remedy, I tried some olive oil drops to remove ear wax as well as for getting away with itching. But it seems like a temporary solution and not helping much. If any ENT specialists could refer any ear drop for the same, then it would be really appreciated. Thank you.
