Hi @Listlad, Maybe something like this ?
View attachment 30987
The bottle I bought is 10ml size. On the front it says “Tea Tree Oil - 100% Australian Oil” “Natural Antiseptic”.

It is undiluted so very strong.

They seem to do a cream too, which I think is to help avoid putting onto the skin totally neatly.

But the Daktacort does work, I just apply it behind my ear and around th per ear lobe but nowhere near the inner ear canal.

I also use the Daktacort in some other far flung places to good effect for similar reasons.

We have Teetree oil here yes, exported from downunder. I use it on my feet.

And another good thing about tee-tree oil is that fungi doesn’t grow well in it either

Flaky skin can in some cases be a fungi infection , with an average high blood glucose we also more often can catch a fungi infection all over the body

Lots of people write about the benefits of coconut oil on skin problems.. never tried it myself but might be worth go.
Yes the same stuff you cook with.
It's getting a coconut in your ear though it could get stuck, I was told it's excema as well very irritating though.
