Why my hears itch? I purchased my AirPods 2nd Gen November or December last year. I wore them and my heats started itching I stopped using them for a few weeks and started using them again and my heats itch as soon as I wear them. This never happened with my first pair of AirPods.

Ear piercing screeching noise with Air Pods Hi! I've had my airpods for about 9 months now and they have been working great, but the last 3 days I have been on a call and there is a loud ear piercing screeching noise in both ears that happens mid-call. Its so loud and high pitched that I've had to rip my Airpods out of my ears and I think it is causing some hearing damage. I've tried deconnecting and reconnecting my Airpods and it still is making this awful noise. Is there a fix for this?

I contacted Apple sales and they sent me a postage paid label for return
