Preauricular sinus in ear from Birth
Hi this is Yash from Gurugram, Haryana. I am 20 years old. I am facing preauricular sinus problem from last 5-6 years. I did a proper treatment, also taken a advice from ear specialist and taken medicines as well. But, didn't get positive results as, I wanted. Now, the condition is like that, in every 2-3 months this problem will happen. Doctors, also suggested for a surgery but I don't want to go. After, exploring about this problem I got to know in "Homeopathy" there is a regular course of this problem, and chances of recovery more better then surgery and other medicines. Now, I am looking for a good homeopathy doctor with good consultations and the ways by which this problem will never ever happen.

Pre auricular sinus is an anatomical defect by birth ... It will never heal with medicine ... Meds will only treat the infection for the time being ..then it will get infected again ... Final treatment is surgery ... Plz avoid doctor hopping ... No allopathic meds ,no homeopathy meds can treat a sinus period

There is no alternative to surgery.
like Dr Gladson has suggested, i would say exactly the same thing , you are wasting your time and money over multiple consultations and medication for it , a simple minor surgery will solve your problem permanently.

A preauricular sinus is a congenital defect. That is a fact. There is no alternative to surgical removal of this defect. Anybody who suggests otherwise is only misguiding you and wasting your time.
