Patient's question:
Health consultation description: The baby is two months old, and there is a small hole in the right ear. After researching and searching, it is identified as a preauricular fistula. The baby often shakes his head, which should be very itchy. Can the white discharge be squeezed? What should be paid attention to? How big is the surgery?Doctor's answer:
Hello, the condition you mentioned is a congenital preauricular fistula infection. In this case, surgical treatment is required. The surgical trauma is not significant. Hello, the child is still young, so you can start with antiviral treatment. Take the child to the pediatric department of the hospital for a follow-up examination. After diagnosis, conservative treatment can be initiated to suppress the infection. Wait until the child is older to perform surgery. I hope my explanation can help you. Wishing the patient a speedy recovery!
