Flaky skin inside the ear canals is usually a symptom of seborrhoeic eczema.

This condition frequently affects skin elsewhere, particularly around the eyebrows, eyelids, forehead and nose. It appears dry and may become cracked and sore and sometimes infected. It is important not to get the skin in your ears infected, so resist the urge to scratch at them, and do not use cotton-buds because they act like ram-rods to pack all the debris and wax against your ear-drum; It is usually wise to avoid ear-syringing too.

It is worth applying a little Vaseline to your ears prior to swimming and hair washing. You may even want to use a plug of cotton wool to keep water out. Your doctor will be able to advise you whether you require any further treatment because it tends to be a recurring condition.

Yours sincerely
