Question
How to Treat Congenital Preauricular Fistula Inflammation?
Answer
For congenital preauricular fistulas that frequently inflame, treatment usually involves cleaning with physiological saline, applying antibiotic ointment topically in the affected area to achieve anti-inflammatory effects, and taking symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication orally. If conservative treatment does not show significant improvement, surgery to remove the fistula may be considered. In everyday life, precautions should be taken to avoid bacterial infections to reduce the production of purulent secretions.
