Hi everyone and happy 4th of July Anyone have any ideas for dealing with extreme itching inside the ears. This is a hard one for me as I will be in public talking to people or wherever and the inner ear starts to itch so powerfully I wish i could scratch the heck out of it but can't reach and dont want to perforate anything. Any ideas? I used to use hydrogen peroxide but have heard such mixed reviews from others.

Try Campho-fenique in the liquid form. I mix it with twice as much olive oil and swab inside the ears with a Q-tip. It always worked for me. Seems to kill whatever is causing the itch or biting sensations.

I use Lugols 2% Iodine on a Q-tip being careful not to get into the eardrum I also have a friend that does this we both think it works wounders
