Pimples behind the ears

Children often guess riddles: a gourd head with seven holes on it is the head. The human body has its own protection function. The facial skin is very thin, and there are muscles wrapped around the skull. There is only a layer of scalp on the back of the head, which is protected by the hair. There is an area behind the ear that has neither muscle nor hair. You can feel it yourself. Normally, the ear protects the safety of that area.

The back of the ear is a weak spot on the head. If there is danger, that place is most vulnerable to injury. Some people say that the pimples behind the ear are malignant tumors, some say it is seborrheic dermatitis, some say it is caused by throat inflammation, and some say it is herpes zoster. Which one is it?

In fact, this situation is mostly caused by getting angry, because the area behind the ear and extending to the chin is the distribution zone of the human body's lymph, and the lymph will swell to remind us when we get angry. Some people react by getting acne on the sides of their face and around their neck, while others develop pustules inside, outside, front and back of their ears. They are very hard at first, and even in severe cases, you will feel pain in half of your face when you sleep. Then it slowly softens, and finally the pus will be discharged on its own. No deliberate treatment is needed. Try not to touch the affected area with your hands, drink plenty of water, and try not to stay up late at night. Even if it is still not absorbed after two to three days, it will no longer affect your normal work and life. If you are worried, you can do a self-examination. If it is a small lump, with slight tenderness, and not adhered to the surrounding area, and at the same time the tonsils are inflamed, it may be that the inflammation causes local lymph node enlargement, and the tonsillitis should be cured as soon as possible; if it has a clear outline, is soft, is localized and not adhered to the surrounding tissue, and has no tenderness, it may be a lipoma. If it grows fast, you should go to the hospital for surgery to remove it; if it is adhered to the bones, is irregular, has unclear boundaries, grows fast or has ulcers, you should go to the hospital for diagnosis and treatment.

As the saying goes, you see the shortcomings of others, but you can't see the dust behind your own ears. It is true that you cannot see behind your ears, and it is not easy to wash that area when washing your face or hair. Everyone must pay attention to washing that area. The sebum secretion behind the ears is more active, and the frequent oil secretion makes it easy for dust to stick to the area, and it is also easy to cause pimples.
