For the last two weeks my ears have been itching non-stop. Sometimes they hurt too. I go through days where I sneeze all day, but nothing comes out so it makes my nose really stuffy. I have had to use an inhaler a couple of times. My 4yr old who has bad allergies just this last weekend started sneezing and is now all stuffed up. I dont know what ahe is allergic to. So I wondering if anybody knows what those white things are that have been blowing around for the last couple weeks. Also if anybody has any ideas to stop my itchy ears, and control my daughters nose.

What can I do next?

Try Ear Candeling. You can purchase them to do yourself at home or some places will do it for you!

I have suffered from a systemic yeast infection called Candida and one of the symptoms was itchy ears. I have been taking probiotics which help, the best one I found which is specifically to combat Candida is called ThreeLac. I also take another probiotic called Acidophilus Pearls. If you research it online there is a lot of info out there on it. Good luck.

I believe the fluff is from the cotton wood trees.
I've seen an itchy ear oil at the health food store before. I mix 2 drops of tee tree oil, 2-3 drops of GSE, in a little dropper bottle with olive oil. I use that to clean my family's ears and the cat too. But hylands brand homeopathic probably have something great too.
Good luck, A. H

The itchy ears are related to your allergies (so says my doctor and my experience). It is the ONLY symptom I get when I have allergies. It's very unpleasant, especially at night when you are trying to sleep. Flonase (a prescription allergy medicine) works for me. There is really nothing else you can do that I know of to relieve the itching. Trust me, I have tried it all!

Just a laugh for you -- I got my car detailed on Saturday, left the windows down to dry out the upholstry, and when I went to roll them up, my newly cleaned black seats and floorboards were covered with "those fuzzy white things"!

Those little white things drive me nuts too, I sneeze and caugh because of them,, ugh. They are from Cotton Wood trees, and they will be gone a a few weeks :-) thank goodness!
As far as your ears, I really dont know, im assuming it's inside your ears, my 1st thought would be to try the over the counter drops for ears, or saline. for your daughters nose, I used to use a nasial spray my Dr. perscribed for me, it worked pretty well too.

Good luck!
