A growth inside the ear may be a boil on the external auditory canal, cyst on the external auditory canal, papilloma on the external auditory canal, etc. General treatment, medication and surgery are feasible.
1. External auditory canal boil: It is caused by bacterial infection of hair follicles or sebaceous glands in the cartilaginous part of the external ear by staphylococcus bacteria. Topical application of ichthyol glycerin can be used to promote the reduction of inflammation. Larger boils may accumulate pus, which can be drained by surgical incision. If the disease recurs, surgical excision of the complete boil is recommended to prevent recurrence.
2. Cysts of the external auditory canal: Smaller cysts can be treated with ofloxacin ear drops to fight infection. If the inflammation does not subside or the cyst is large, surgical excision of the cyst should be performed.
3. Papilloma of the external auditory canal: tumor resection under local anesthesia. If there is infection, oral antibiotics such as cefuroxime should be taken first to control the infection, and surgical resection should be performed after the inflammation is eliminated.
It is recommended that the patient should consult a doctor to clarify the cause of the disease and then treat the cause of the disease, and the above medicines should be used according to the doctor’s prescription.
