Did your mom buy your hamster from a petshop? What species of hamster is he?
Maybe your hamster was bitten by one of his siblings while kept together in a small tank and the shop didn't notice.
He'll be so glad to be with you now.
When hamsters groom which they do a lot, it can look quite intense. Often they lick their paw first and then have a good scratch.

Hi! Thank you for responding, sorry I am getting back to you so late. It's been a busy two days. Here is the link for the pictures -->

He is a Winter White/Russian Dwarf hamster and my mom did get him at our local pet shop.
I have noticed that the scratching really is just intense grooming lol. His ear doesn't look inflammed or irrated and he hasn't been scratching it as much.
