The simplest way to relieve itchy ears is to prepare a bottle of hydrogen peroxide and soak a cotton swab in it; hydrogen peroxide has antibacterial properties. Gently rotate the cotton swab in the outer ear canal, then tilt your head downward to allow the solution to drain out on its own. Avoid frequent ear picking—cleaning should be done no more than once a week. If your ears are itchy, treat them properly using hydrogen peroxide first, then visit a hospital for diagnosis. Do not take medication randomly.
