OP tell us the real issue here, share with us why you don't trust your husband and maybe we can help.

Blimey, if I was cheating every time I got a fresh scratch or cut, there would not be enough hours in the day for me to have that many encounters!
I have scratched myself, with my own nails, accidentally on a number of occasions, or caught myself with something (brambles, barbed wire) or been scratched by animals (mainly cats and rabbits) or children. I honestly cannot remember a single scratch sustained as a result of having sex.
Why don't you simply say to your husband, "Ooh, you have a scratch behind your ear. What happened?"

You must be a very paranoid person if a possible affair is the conclusion you draw from a scratch on the earlobe. ANYTHING could have caused it!

What else makes you think he is cheating - besides the little scratch?
What exactly made you think scratch = cheating?
For most people that would NOT be the first conclusion to come up with IMHO.
Here in the North, it's mosquito season they are VICIOUS this time of year and I have more bits and scratches than usual because I also have adverse reactions to them.
Does he wear glasses? Sunglasses? Maybe they irritated him and he scratched his earlobe?
I think it's IMPOSSIBLE to say that he MUST have cheated because he has a scratch on his ear.
So, I have to ask why the mistrust?
