Is Clotrimazole The Right Medicine For Itchiness In The Ears?

Looking for something otc for itching ears. I scratch my ear canals so bad that they ll actually flake the following day. My doctor prescribed clotrimazole but the pharmacist said I couldn t put it in my ears. The doctor said pharmacists don t know everything doctors can do. Anyway it helped some but now I m out of it.
