Itching in ears
Hello Doctor,
I am a 45-year-old female.
I am having itching in both of my ears for the past few days. There is no major pain, but the itching is quite uncomfortable.
I bought Candid Ear Drops from the medical store.
Can I use these drops?
I also have an allergy to Betadine.
Please suggest.
Thank you.

First we have to check the ears if itching sensation is due to earwax candid drops won't work .
If it is due to some fungal infection only it will work.
Some times allergy might also be the. Cause
So get an ent consultation
