Q: I am a 20 years old female suffering from frequent ear itching though I clean my ears everyday. What could be the reason behind frequent itching in ear?

A:Itching in ear will get worse if you clean ear every day especially if you use an ear bud. Stop cleaning. Take atarax (10 mg) tablet at bed time and put betnesol N ear drops once after bath.
