Q: recurring wound at base of earlobe

asked by: swede1981 on March 2nd, 2009

Hi,

For the past year or so i've noticed what looks like a recurring tear or cut where my ear meets my head/neck. it's like a sore cut about 1/4 inch long right at the juncture of the bottom of my right ear and the head. It heals up and then comes back every month or so. I was hyopthesizing some kind of fungal thing, but any idea what this could be indicative of? Thanks

Hi!

I seem to have the exact condition that you described, and I haven't been able to find any other information on it. Have you found out more about the condition since then?

Thanks for any help.
