A. this is very common in children and does not require any treatment and will go away by two years of age rubbing of ear as well as itching of the ears is totally normal. if the child is not crying do not worry about it and to decrease the itching sensation you can apply coconut oil over it. do not use earbuds to clean the internal ear cavity. external ear can be cleaned with the help of clean cotton cloth. treatment is given only if the child is crying with pain while itching. for pain you can give paracetamol

A. Hello mom If your baby is having any sort of pain while touching it then only you have to worry otherwise not because some babies do this and these things get normal by its owner next few days. If you want to clean babies ears then you can use waxiklin drops Happy parenting Stay home stay safe
