RE: Tickling Sensation Inside Ear
I wear a night guard (bite plate) because I grind my teeth in my sleep. When nothing worked to stop the maddening itching in and around my right ear, my wife suggested that I try wearing the night guard during the day. I was skeptical, because my TMJ problem had caused pain in the jaw and temple areas, but no itching sensation. It worked! I asked the ENT specialist who had examined my ear (and found nothing), and he said that TMJ can cause some strange symptoms. He had not heard about itching before, but he said TMJ was probably the cause.

RE: Tickling Sensation Inside Ear
I still haven't found a cause for this most annoying problem, but I was wondering if this could be a nerve that's become aggravated, maybe from the neck. other wise could it be clenching teeth to tight. I have racked my brain to come up with a reason behind this irritating problem as G.P doesn't have answer maybe it's something to do with medication
I am on satins to lower cholesterol. Please leave feed back re this message.

RE: Tickling Sensation Inside Ear
I have been having this tickling sensation in my left ear for the last 4-5 years. It started out to be just a minor issue, however, it is now occurring all the time and it is driving me crazy. The sensation starts deep inside and it extends to the outside of the ear. I have been to my Doctor and 3 specialists in Neurology and Ear Nose and Troat. They all stated that my ear looks normal and have no idea what is going on and have no solution to the problem. They have given me 3 different types of drops and nothing works. I even had a scan of the left side of my head and everything is normal.
When the tickling gets really bad I stick an ear plug in as far as it can go which allows the tickling to be a little less irritating; however, when I have the plug in and the tickling occurs, I can hear a gurgling sound.
I will also utilize a Q-Tip by sticking it in and touching certain spots; again, a temporary fix.
There has got to be a solution to this problem.

RE: Tickling Sensation Inside Ear
Hi i still have this sensation within the shell part of my ear its almost five monthes now I was wondering if is related to a nerve in the neck it is so annoying I cant help but go through various thought processes trying to eliminate the could be scenario. I see someone has had a return of this happening after using ear plugs, so may be it is nerve related ?
Someone suggested it could be a food intolerance which I doubted, but as food does enter the blood stream I suppose it could have some effect, I have been eating a low fat cheese quite a bit after having cheese free years because of high cholesterol, who knows , I wonder if any of you have high cholesterol maybe we could piece something together if so.

RE: Tickling Sensation Inside Ear
I have had this annoying sensation a few times these past 2 years, lasting weeks, sometimes months, with each episode. It can drive you NUTS. I was "tickle-free" for months recently and then last week it started again. The night before, I had put silicone earplugs in my ears because of my husband's snoring and I can't help but think that this may be the cause otherwise it's too much of a coincidence! Right now, I'm waiting until the tickling goes away again, and I'll experiment one more time to see if the silicone earplugs cause it. I may be totally off mark but it's worth sharing, just in case all of you are earplug users.

It is fluid in the ear causing the sensations.

HI Georgina
You have described this very well, I have had this for five months now, and seen my G.P four times they dont have any advice or answer for it. so I suppose your theory could be right it could be stres related , as i have this in abundance, however it dosent alter the fact, its there and very annoying,
thanks for responding.

I know exactly what you're going through. I've been feeling the same thing for the past two months now and it's very annoying. Can't even describe it. Feels like somebody is tickling my ear with a feather and feeling all goose bumps and it comes in waves all day long. How does one go to a doctor with this complaint? I think it might be stress. Wish I knew for sure.

RE: Tickling Sensation Inside Ear
I've had the tickling for a few months. I just started looking online for information. On one site someone suggested that she gets relief by pushing her tongue on the roof of her mouth just behind her front teeth. I tried it and it works!

My son had a small 1/2 hair in his ear from a hair cut. He complained for weeks about this a strange noise and a tickling. The Dr suggested flushing the ear out with water in a needless syringe and after several squirts out came a tiny hair. Feeling is gone.

RE: Tickling Sensation Inside Ear
First off, you're not crazy and you're not the only one experiencing this "deep ear itch." I have the same problem. Like you, I got prescribed the ear drops and cortisone. The ear drops seemed to help for a little while, but when they ran out, I was back at square one. The cortisone was just too messy - yuck! Who wants a glob of goop in their ear?
I'm already visually impaired, so don't want to endanger my hearing by digging deep enough to scratch where it *really* itches. My solution might not help you, but maybe you'll find it worth a try.
If you use dandruff shampoo, try this the next time you wash your hair: get your hair soapy with the dandruff shampoo and then rub it into your ears, too. When you rinse, be sure to let the water run into your ears. Even if the itch is on the shell of your ear, this could help. I hope it does.

Possibly it's your sinuses being aggravated.

RE: Tickling Sensation Inside Ear
Ok, I refuse to feel wierd about saying this one!
Is it an INVISI-HAIR? One of those ultra pale, ultra thin hairs people sprout in weird places.
LOL Mine was on my hand and I swear I lived with a ghost for a two week period, cause it felt like someone touching the back of my hand.
I also produced one close to the side of my nose, and it took me a month to see IT.
Sit in the sunshine and use a good magnifier mirror, or a good friends younger eyesight.
