Probably not the first one to start about this. But recently I don't see threads covering this issue.
Last year (August) I got myself a nice pair of Airpods Pro which I really enjoyed without any problems until December. I just them for during holidays quit a lot and I started noticing severe itching inside the ear ways on both sides, but one more than the other. I tried to scratch but it didn't helped, other then it started hurting.
I stopped using the Airpods and it got better. I tried again the airpods and again after a bit of time it started itching and I had like water (clear, no color) coming out of my ear, like you went swimming. When dry it left a crusty leftover, difficult to remove.
I searched many places and tried many things, every time with same result. the above mentioned reaction after two hours use. Also important is that I only have this reaction with the Airpods, other in-ear headphones from other brands never gave a reaction. I tried the following:
- Replaced tips with Comply Foam tips
- Replaced tips with third party silicon/plastic tips
- With sunlight, desklight, UV-B and UV-C light trying to dry the resins in the plastic (really, it was mentioned in other Forums that this was the problem.
- Use the Airpods without tips
- Considering a reaction to the used plastic casing of the pods I also wrapped the Airpods in Kling film and used them like that to avoid contact with the white plastic.
It doesn't matter what I do, I get the same reaction. What can this be? Has anybody any other ideas or experiences? I even start believing I am sensitive to the signals (bluetooth) of the airpods, what else can it be?
