    Not all newborn babies have small holes in their ears, and this small hole is not a "blessing hole", its scientific name is "preauricular fistula", and the reason why there are small holes in the ears is "fistula". In the process of the child's normal development, the "fistula" will close, if it is not closed due to some factors, it is a deformity, which many doctors will not say, because it will not have much impact on the child's body, but improper care may have a great impact.

    Why do parents need attention to the small holes in the ears of newborn babies?

    1) Improper care is easy to itch.

    This small hole in the ear, once stained with something dirty is infected, it is easy to itch, after the itching baby likes to scratch with his own little hands, the more scratched the more serious, serious and easy to redness and swelling, and even pus.

    This is likely to be caused by improper care, or it may be caused by the child's unintentional scratching of the ear, if the baby has a small hole in the ear, pay extra attention.

    2) Improper care is prone to inflammation.

    If the care is not appropriate, it is easy to get inflamed behind the ears, especially in summer, the child often sweats, bacteria are easy to enter, once the inflammation is easy to cause the baby to have a fever.

    Therefore, this small hole cannot be ignored, although it usually has no effect on the body, it is also necessary to pay attention to the following.

    2.Parents should not squeeze with their hands.

    Sometimes it's not that the child likes to touch it with his hands, but that the parents have obsessive-compulsive disorder and want to help the child by themselves, which is also what the old people often say about squeezing out the concentrated water with their hands, so that it will get better quickly, but in fact, this behavior is wrong.

    It is precisely because of their own wrong ideas and wrong actions that some parents will make a small puslet more serious, and at the same time squeeze the pustule to the child, bacteria may also invade the child's wound.

    Therefore, when a child is found to have pustules or small holes, parents should not only tell the child not to squeeze easily, but also not help the child to squeeze to avoid infection.

    End. When you become a parent, you must become very careful in taking care of your children, and you must not put your careless character on your children, so as not to hurt your children because of their parents' negligence, so that not only the children will suffer, but the parents will also be very uncomfortable.

    After the baby is born, parents always can't see enough of the baby. After falling asleep and taking a bath, I can't wait to check every bit of the baby carefully.

    Many parents find that there is a small hole next to the baby's ear, and sometimes there is liquid flowing out, which smells stinky, what is this?

    Folklore in some places believes that the small hole in the ear is a sign of good luck, representing the baby's wisdom and blessing, and this small hole is called the ear cang.

    The implication is very good, but it actually has nothing to do with whether the child is smart or not. In medicine, this is a common congenital malformation of the outer ear called a congenital anterior auricular fistula.

    The small foramen of the preauricular fistula mostly opens in front of the ear, and a few open on the posterior upper edge of the ear chakra, tragus and earlobe, and the fistula is of different depths and lengths, and almost all of the fistulas are connected to the perichondrium of the ear cartilage.

    At present, it is believed that the occurrence of preauricular fistula is related to heredity, and the incidence of congenital preauricular fistula in China is mostly unilateral.

    It was found that there were holes in the baby's ears.

    Don't do it.

    Most babies with preauricular fistula are generally asymptomatic, and there may be a little thin and slightly odorous mucus or milky white sebum overflow when pressed, and there may be itching and discomfort locally, and the local fistula and surrounding tissues can be red, swollen, painful, and abscess after infection.

    If the baby is young, the infection may be accompanied by systemic symptoms such as fever.

    Usually when caring for your baby, be careful not to do this:

    Do not squeeze, keep the area clean and avoid infection;

    Do not poke small holes with foreign bodies, and do not pick up abscesses by yourself after infection;

    When washing your face, wash the front and back of your lower ears with clean water, and after washing, wipe the surrounding water with a cotton swab, but don't use too much force.
