Why does he do this?

My son is 5 months old ebf and recently he has started to aggressively pull and scratch at his face and ear when we nurse. He does it to my breast sometimes and it doesn't feel good I have to hold his hand so he doesn't do it. Do you think something is bothering him or maybe is just a weird nursing habit he has?
