The Ear Canal

How complicated is the ear canal anyway?

I keep getting the itchies in my ear canals. Is canals even the right word for it? The place between the outer ear and the hearing bits.

Why are ear and hear virtually the same word? Hear is like ear with a breathing mark. You hear with an ear. An ear of corn can hear itself rustling in the field.

I would love to get rid of these itchies forever. I keep scratching them, then there's funky things that happen with my ears and drainage. It's a vicious cycle.

There ought to be some kind of medicine I could daub in there, Scalpicin for the ear.
