Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of red itchy rashes on ear which is because of ear infection leading to otitis externa and it could be due to skin allergic reaction as well. Need not to worry. You can use ciplox or gatiflox ear drops for local application. You should visit ENT specialist and go for otoscopic examination and start treatment after proper prescription. Keep ears dry and clean. Start with antibiotic course of that particular bacteria. Apply topical antibacterial ointment such as betnovate on skin. Avoid touching or pricking it with sharp object.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
