Hi,
From history it seems that there might be having fungal infection in ear canal giving this problem.
Continue putting otocomb ear drops after proper cleaning the canal.
Take care not entering water into ear canal while taking shower.
Clean ear canal with cotton buds after shower or put cotton bud into ear while taking shower.
Ok and take care.
