Small holes in children's ears are usually preauricular fistulas, which are congenital deformities caused by genetic factors. They are mainly due to the fetus not closing properly during embryogenesis, resulting in the formation of small holes after birth. Generally, they will not have any adverse effects on children, and there are no uncomfortable symptoms, so there is no need for excessive concern or tension.
1. However, it should be noted that the small hole on a child's ear should never be squeezed with hands or poked with needles, as this may easily lead to infection. Pay attention to the local cleanliness of the hole and keep it dry. Do not intentionally pay attention to or rub these areas.
2. Also, when some babies experience throat infections, it may spread to the ears or cause symptoms of heatiness, resulting in inflammation of the small hole. In such cases, there may be some purulent secretions discharged. It is necessary to pay attention to the local disinfection and nursing work, and take anti-inflammatory drugs under the guidance of a doctor.
3. When noticing any abnormal conditions in a child's body, parents should not respond or medicate blindly, as this may adversely affect the child's health. If you are unsure about the abnormal problem, consult a doctor and never trust various remedies or medicate blindly, to avoid causing greater harm to the child's health.
