Question
My 12-month-old son has had a small supernumerary ear at the tragus of his right ear since birth, which has been growing in size over time. It is now about 1 millimeter in diameter. Because I am worried about the potential impact of anesthesia on the child’s brain, I have not consulted about it yet, and now it shows a tendency to grow larger.
Answer
The earlier your child’s ear surgery is performed, the better the results will be. In addition to regular treatment for pediatric outer ear deformities, patients should consult with experts frequently and maintain communication with their doctors. Patients should also pay attention to nursing care, such as maintaining a light diet and engaging in outdoor activities. At the same time, patients should pay attention to choosing a top-tier hospital for treatment to ensure good treatment outcomes.
