Redness and flaky skin
I believe the flaky skin is due to some skin problems? But is the redness over tha back of ear normal? Or is it sign that some infection is there?
It doesn't itches or anything.
Also yes sometimes i have felt a throbbing type of pain in outer ear cartilage, once or twice in a year. Please guide me.

Looks nothing to worry.
Sometimes sweat or itching and rubbing of the area can cause such redness.
Check for dandruff.
