All those doctors that tell you not to stick things in your ears never say what you should do when your ear is itching so bad you want to use a stiff bottle brush to scratch it. IJS
I ignore those doctors at my own peril. I have super itchy ears.
Well, other bands know more than three chords. Your professional bands can play up to six, sometimes seven, completely different chords.

Chronically itchy ears here, too. Mine's usually dry skin. On my doctor's advice, I wet a cotton swab with hydrogen peroxide and press it against the upper rim of the ear canal so just a drop of the peroxide runs down the channel. Sometimes I can hear it fizzing. Then a quick blot with a dry swab, and I apply petroleum jelly with a clean swab, because the jelly doesn't evaporate and doesn't dry out as quickly as other things, and keeps the dry skin flakes from tickling so badly.
It's worked so far to reduce, practically eliminate the itch.

My dad has this issue. Do you thing a blow dryer would help, like it does with other bad itches? Or even a heat pad?

I don't have cotton swabs in the house because it starts a cycle of cleaning/itching/cleaning that just gets worse.

Heat wouldn't work for me, but it might for him. It's worth a try.

They would get a workout with my graffiti because my Spanish graffiti would be grammatically abysmal.

Thrive to spite them
My adventures in online dating:
Bunch of random dudes wanting hook ups, one unsuccessful date, one guy who wouldn't take a polite no for an answer, got mad at a blunt no and then still wanted to meet me (I blocked him), and one 30 year old who lives 4 hours away who wouldn't take no for answer and instead of being polite I told him that I didn't like me that wouldn't take no for an answer. He responded with "o ur feminist?"
I replied that accepting no is polite and respectful. But yes I 've been a feminist since longer than he's been alive and been dealing with boys about as long. I'm not sure if he'll reply.

I can't stop clenching my teeth. I have a night guard which I'm wearing not just at night. But even with it I'm clenching my teeth and my jaw aches
