To help CPR practitioners to remember the order of the procedural steps, the acronym ABC was taught to stand for Airway, Breathing, Circulation. In 2010, the order of the steps was changed to Circulation, Airway, Breathing, so the acronym is now CAB.
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.
In most of these cases, the itch is also accompanied by watery and irritated eyes. Occasionally, irritation as well as itching of the ear canals can be cause by sensitivity to certain shampoo or hairsprays. Another one of the causes of ear canal itching is also the insufficient development of wax of the ear. This is a very common condition in swimmers. But, even an excessive production or buildup of wax of the ear can cause the ear canal to itch.
