What Causes Crawling Sensation In Ear?
I have been having a crawling sensation in my ear. At first I thought I had a bug in there, and I could actuallly feel it crawling, but when I had it checked, there was nothing there. I actually looked in the mirror when I was having the feeling, and thought for sure I would see a leg of something coming out, but that wasn t the case. What causes this and what can I do about it.

Hello,
I read carefully your query and understand your concern.
The tingling and crawling feeling may also be the result of some foreign element in your ear including a bug.
In such a case, the best home remedy is to make use of alcohol/hydrogen peroxyde and water solution in the ear and flush away any foreign particles to clean your ear.
Hope my answer was helpful.
If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.
Kind regards!
