About Allergic otitis externa.

Allergic otitis externa is a non-infectious inflammatory condition affecting the external auditory canal and frequently the adjacent pinna.

It is primarily mediated by type IV delayed hypersensitivity reactions provoked by contact allergens, such as components of topical otic medications, cosmetic products, earplugs, hearing aid materials, or underlying atopic diatheses.

Patients clinically present with intense pruritus, canal erythema, edema, serous exudate, and cutaneous flaking or desquamation, which can compromise the epidermal barrier and increase susceptibility to secondary microbial infections.
