From what I understand, it is very common to have problems with corn if you have celiac disease/DH, and that has turned out to be the case with myself and several other affected members of my family, unfortunately.Ĭonsuming corn doesn't always elicit an obvious reaction, but any time I do have the itchy ears, I can always trace it back to having had corn (or some ingredient derived from corn) within the last 12 - 24 hours. After a lot of experimentation, I realized it was corn.

After being strictly gluten free for a couple of years, I began to develop this problem and struggled for a long time to figure out what was causing it. Many interesting theories here about why you might have intense itchiness deep inside your ears! For me, it turned out to be corn.
#Inner ear itch wheat allergy how to#
I sure wish I could find out about my ear and how to make it stop! Thanks for all the posts! I do eat popcorn (I noticed the post on popcorn) but not every day. I don't know if I am still getting glutened or what?! My scalp itches a lot, too. I have mentioned it to him in subsequent years but he always says he sees nothing. The next year, he gave me free drops to put in there but they burned so bad, I only tried them twice and threw them away. At first, he looked in there, with his otoscope, but saw nothing unusual. Anyway, my right ear itches like crazy, smells bad most times, and, when I put a Q-Tip in there, it seems to be wet and stinks. I was told stress could do that and I am in a stressful job so I can't help that, I guess. I also have DH, sometimes a mild case on my forearms, sometimes it looks hideous. Yet, this itchy ear I have had for 7 or 8 years doesn't seem to be getting any better. Still, I have been gluten free for about a year now, along with lactose free, and have done much better. I did the Celiac ID spit test but it was negative. Both my mom and my aunt are diagnosed with celiac sprue. Wow! Even though these posts are old, they are helpful! I am 52 and self-diagnosed myself about a year ago. Is it true that canned vegies are not gluten-free? I'm so overwhelmed that I don't even know where to begin with all of this gluten-free eating. I never suspected til now that it could be from food allergies, but know that it is worse at times then others. NICE huh?īut honestly, I've known of no one personally with this dilemma, and I'm sorry that others are suffering, but it's nice to know that I'm not crazy or alone. An most of the time it has a small odor to it.like a yeast infection smell that dogs get in their ears. But i've done the washes and all and it just doesn't go away.
Very interesting.my doc said it was from ear wax build up. The ear, though, seems to be gone completely (knock wood!) The antihistimines help for a while, but it keeps coming back. Strange-I now have something similar going on with my left eye.
It was a constant itch deep inside my ear-no redness or anything like that. Since I've been taking antihistimines regularly, it has gone away. YES!! I had an itching in my right ear that, I swear, lasted for years.
