christ, did you not wash your hair?

but I didn't hear that there was any specific reason to do so - the avoidance of cheese smell

why do you wash any part of your body? the avoidance of cheese smell.

All these stupid answers how old are these people? I am very extreme when it comes to keeping ones self clean and I have always had the same thing.

How extreme?

This thread is gross.

the answer to the original question might be that it's a low-level yeast infection.

So it could be Marmite, rather than cheese?

Ditto what teeny said. I get sore crusties back there if I'm not scrupulous, and sometimes even when I am. It clears up with antifungal cream. It's a humid spot if you have long hair, I suppose that's the explanation. Or it's externalizing brain-rot.

That WAS rather harsh, somewhat like her scrubbing ritual.

look up the word 'ear cheese' in google. go to the urban dictionary.
it states that the white stuff that is produced in large ear holes (from ear rings) is partly created by shampoo residue.
try, when you wash your hair, reallllly taking care of rinsing behind your ears
i know its talking about earrings, but what've you go to lose?
try it out

Are you saying I don't rinse well enough? I WILL FIGHT YOU!!!!!!

There is an awful cheese smell just like you'd get behind your ears in your bellybutton too if you don't wash it religiously. Yeech. It's nasty. I wash both parts well everyday; well...I wash all parts daily really. I asked a doctor about it and its something about sebaceous secretions or other equally horrid thing.

Wow! This heat and humidity provoke a huge ear-eczema explosion, quelled with two days' of antifungal cream application. Just so you know

four years pass...

I have the same problem, I tried almost everything to soap the back of my ears yet at the end of the day it still smells cheese, then I used this feminine hygiene wash which has a ph level of 3.5 and voila the smell is gone. You should try it too. Thanks!
