I have had problems for many years with my ears. They itch on the inside and have swollen completely shut. This was extremely painful. I am not a swimmer and I hardly ever get water in my ears in the shower. They seem to seep occassionally and then itch some more. I seem to notice it more at night time. I feel that it's more an allergy than anything. Has anyone else out there experienced this problem? If so, did you find the cause?
