Dry, sore ear - Mouths of Mums

Hello!

I am continually getting a very sore ear. I have a lump or sore on one of the fold of the ear that will not go away and now I am getting very dry sore ear under the top inner lobe. I put dome lotion on it but it has not helped.
The dryness may have started when I went in the spa but why would it only affect the left ear, not the right. Also I sleep on my left side and have for many years.

Yes, when it’s keeps being painful despite the things you tried then I would suggest to see a doctor as well.

I would see my doctor. I’d want to know what it is.

Anything, any issue, that doesn’t clear up after a decent amount of time needs to be checked out by a doctor. It could be nothing, but it could be sinister

Ask your doctor for a lotion that has betamethasone in it.

could be a really full on pimple but if it doesn’t clear up, get it checked out.

If this persists it might be wise to get it checked out by your doctor.
