If you have significant cosmetic deformity of the pinna due to any cause then it can't be repaired by using any medicines or creams. Plastic surgical techniques are the only option. Fungal infection can be treated by medications
Next Steps
Consult nearby ENT specialist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required
