I contstantly have a bad itch inside ear way down deep. Its only in one ear. Its so deep I can feel the itch when I swallow. Its become really bothersome lately and I think I'm going to the ENT to get it checked and also complain of bb constantly.
Just wondering if anyone else has this itch, as it may be infection.

No, I've never had an itch. Are you sure you're not confusing the itch with pain? I actually had a throbbing pain in both of my ears, and the ENT found out that it was coming from a sinus infection.
It could be ear wax trying to work it's way out, swimmer's ear, a food allergy, or an infection. Most of the time it's just ear wax, though.
Look at this. Maybe a few of these things can help with the itching.

Yes, Mindy!
I've noticed that sometimes it's so deep that the best way to scratch it is to scratch in my throat where my right tonsil used to be.

I have it too, itching deep in the ears and most of the times in my right ear.
