Radioactive pain in the earlobe may be related to diseases such as otitis major neuritis, caudate syndrome, hyoid bone syndrome, etc. According to the cause of the disease and the characteristics of the disease, we need to choose the general treatment, drug treatment and surgical treatment.
1. Auricular neuritis: it is often caused by viral or bacterial infections that lead to inflammation of the auricular nerve, which can cause radiating pain in the earlobe because the second branch of the auricular nerve is distributed on the surface of the earlobe. In the acute stage, prednisone can be used orally, and acyclovir and B vitamins can also be used. If the pain is obvious, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs such as ibuprofen can be used for analgesic treatment.
2. Stromal Syndrome: The abnormal direction and shape of the stromal extension can lead to radiating earlobe pain, which is obvious when opening the mouth and swallowing. Surgical amputation of the elongated stenosis is the most effective treatment.
3. Hyoid bone syndrome: Diseases of the hyoid bone and the muscle groups attached to its surface can lead to radiating pain in the earlobe.
(1) Glucocorticoids such as prednisone and local anesthetics such as lidocaine can be used to make a mixture, which can be injected at the point of pain in the greater angle of the hyoid bone for treatment;
(2) Surgical excision of the large angle of the hyoid bone on the affected side or related superfluous organisms;
(3) Application of infrared rays, ultrashort wave or helium-neon laser in the region of the hyoid bone in the neck of the affected side for treatment;
(4) Apply antipyretic, analgesic and anti-inflammatory drugs such as ibuprofen, indomethacin and nepsilon orally.
When radiating pain in the earlobe occurs, it is necessary to actively consult a doctor for a systematic examination, and after a clear diagnosis, follow the doctor’s instructions to standardize the treatment.
