Hi,

Chronic itchy ear needs attention. Recurrent ear infection may be cause some ear problems. General advice:
1. Avoid water dripping in ear
2. Avoid itch and scratch in ear canal
3. You may use cream other than candid B under specialist guidance
Next Step:
Consult an ENT surgeon and have proper diagnosis and treatment.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
