NSAIDs reduce pain, inflammation and swelling while helping the body return to a normal temperature. When the body is injured or ill, it releases an enzyme known as COX. NSAIDs help control two specific types of COX enzymes, COX-1 and COX-2.
If you have an outer ear infection or a middle ear infection, your ears may be filled with a fungal or bacterial infection. This will likely temporarily affect your hearing and may make your hearing sound muffled in the affected ear.
Dry Skin. When your ears donât produce the right amount of ear wax, the skin in your ear canal is unprotected. This can lead to dry skin in your ear canal. Dry skin can be VERY itchy, especially if/when it starts to flake. A lack of ear wax may be the reason you have an itchy inner ear. Otitis media and otitis externa (swimmerâs ear) are two common ear infections that may be the cause of your itchy ears.
