通常，在您的耳垂上和周围的囊肿周围发展肿块。它们的外观与丘疹相似，但它们是不同的。
Somecystsdo not need treatment. If the cyst causes pain or does not go away, you should seek the help of a medical professional.
Earlobe cysts are saclike lumps made of dead skin cells. They look like small, smooth bumps under the skin, similar to a blemish. They vary slightly in color, from matching your skin pigmentation to red.
Usually, they are no bigger than the size of a pea. But you should watch them to see if they change in size.
They’re almost always benign and should cause no problems other than being a minor cosmetic issue or small distraction. For example, it can feel uncomfortable if your headphones rub against them.
Other places you can find cysts include:
- inside your ear
- behind your ear
- 在你的耳道
If a cyst gets damaged, it can leak a fluid called keratin, which is similar in texture to toothpaste.
耳垂囊肿也被称为表皮囊肿。当应该脱落的表皮细胞更深地进入您的皮肤并繁殖时，就会发生这些。这些细胞形成囊肿的壁，并分泌角蛋白，填充囊肿。
Damaged hair follicles or oil glands can cause them. Cysts also often tend to run in families or can form for no reason. They occur in most people at some point. They may appear on the scalp as well as the earlobes. However, they are generally no cause for concern.
有些因素可能会使您患囊肿的风险更高。这些包括：
- 有一种罕见的综合症或基因disorder
- being past the age of puberty, as cysts rarely develop in children or babies
- having a history of or are currently experiencingacne，因为您的皮肤更容易发生液体
- having skin injuries that cause cells to react in an atypical way and bury themselves deeper into the skin, causing a lump to form
If you feel a bump around your earlobe, it is most likely a benign cyst and will usually go away without treatment. Sometimes the cyst will get bigger, but it should still go away without treatment.
You should see a doctor if the cyst:
- gets large
- causes you pain
- 影响您的听力
You should also watch its color. If the color begins to change, it may be infected. You should seek the help of a medical professional to have it removed via a simple incision.
The treatment for a cyst depends on its severity. If the cyst does not cause any problems, you do not need to treat it. It should disappear without treatment.
You may want to remove it if you find the cyst bothersome, the pain is significant, or the cyst grows to an uncomfortable size. Also, if the cyst causes any prolonged pain or hearing loss, you should make an appointment with a doctor to avoid an infection.
A doctor can remove it with an operation under alocal anesthetic。The doctor will cut the cyst, pull it out, and stitch up the skin.
如果囊肿长大，有时可能会发生，则可以很容易地再次将其删除。
耳垂囊肿几乎总是良性的，没有治疗就消失了。他们通常只不过是小小的分心。
如果它们成长并开始引起疼痛甚至稍微失去听力，您应该立即与医生预约讨论治疗选择。
