Patient's question:

The child's ear froze, it freezes every year. The earlobe becomes red and thick.

Doctor's answer:

After earlobe frostbite, gently massage the earlobe with your hand to promote local blood circulation. Regardless of the severity of the frostbite, never immediately go into a warm room to roast or use hot water bags, hot towels, etc., for sudden heating, to avoid causing vasospasm and resulting in local necrosis.
Advice: In the early stages of earlobe frostbite, you can cut a large radish into thick slices, roast them near the fire, and apply them to the red and swollen area of the frostbitten earlobe. This helps to resolve stagnation, disperse blood stasis, activate blood circulation, and reduce swelling. Be careful not to rub the skin too hard. If the frostbite is severe, you can apply frostbite ointment locally and take oral antibiotics.
