I have been experiencing itching inside both of my ears for several months. The skin appears dry and there are small pieces of dead skin. What should I do?

If you are experiencing itching inside your ears for several months and notice dry skin with dead skin flakes, it could be caused by various factors such as a lack or excess of earwax, eczema, infection, stress, or skin issues. To determine the exact cause and find the right treatment, it's important to consult a doctor. If you have additional symptoms like congestion, hearing loss, pressure in the ear, dizziness, or fluid drainage from the ear, it's best to seek medical advice promptly. A doctor can examine your ears with an otoscope and prescribe appropriate treatment if needed.
