Can Lice Travel to Ears and Cause Itching?
lice went into my ear and i know that since i have lice and my glasses have lice (probably) and I pulled my temple of the glasses like a slingshot and it hit my ear. I felt like lice on the temple were going at my ear and now i have an itching sensation in my ear. Will the lice just go away on its own or not. Please reply ASAP :(

Lice in the ear can cause serious infections and complications if left untreated. Talk to ENT specialist they will examine your ear and prescribe the appropriate treatment to get rid of the lice and prevent further complications. Do not try to remove the lice yourself as it may cause more harm
