Itchy ears after a cold can be caused by inflammation caused by a cold. Because sneezing and a runny nose can be caused by a cold, pharyngeal symptoms can also affect the ear when you have a cold because the pharynx has a connection with the ear, so symptoms such as itchy ears can occur. This is a symptom of a cold, but it can also be caused by otitis media or fire. In Chinese medicine, the ear is considered to be part of the circulation of the foot Shaoyang gallbladder meridian, while colds are mostly caused by wind and cold in the bladder meridian. In the case of a combined Sun and Shao Yang illness, itchy ears and ear pain are likely to occur, and Xiao Chai Hu granules can be taken to relieve Shao Yang symptoms. In addition, it may also be a manifestation of diseases such as eczema or fungal infection in the external ear canal. It is recommended to take anti-inflammatory medication for a week in combination with heat-clearing and detoxifying medications such as Lotus Clear Fever and Pu Di Lan Oral Liquid for treatment. If the symptoms are not relieved, it is recommended to go to the ENT department of the hospital as soon as possible.
