Patient's question:
Gradually, the body doesn't feel well, and I don't know why either. It seems like I lack energy. Please ask: What could be the situations if I have a congenital preauricular fistula?Doctor's answer:
Based on the situation you described, consider congenital preauricular fistula. It is recommended to go to the local regular hospital's otolaryngology department for a follow-up examination to confirm the diagnosis and then provide symptomatic treatment. If it is not inflamed, there is no need to worry about it. When it is inflamed, oral anti-inflammatory drugs can usually be used for treatment, such as cefaclor. In severe cases, intravenous anti-inflammatory treatment may be required. If an abscess forms, it is necessary to perform abscess incision and drainage. For recurrently inflamed preauricular fistulas, the fistula should be surgically removed after the inflammation subsides. Always keep the area around the preauricular fistula opening clean and dry. For the patient, if the congenital preauricular fistula condition is severe, immediate symptomatic treatment and appropriate medication should be administered.
