Hello, i want to ask about my daugther s auricular sinus, she has undergo with surgical last february 2013 and it s still vulging and a bit painfull... i am scared if she will go for another surgical because she is only 9 years old... what should be the best medicine to cure that?
Hi, auricular sinuses are congenital malformations formed during the development of Penna. The treatment is the excision of entire tract of the sinus and the wound heals in few days. In case the residual disease is there after excision, the wound will not heal completely and discharge can continue or reappear. Please see an ENT and if a discharge is present, get a culture sensitivity done. Use specific antibiotics after culture and if problem still persists, get a sonogram done and a revision surgery will be required. Regards
