Have Crease On The Ear And It Looks Smaller. What Can I Do For This?
Question: My son has a crease or more like a fold on his earlobe. It makes his ear look smaller then his right ear. Can anything be done for this? He is 15 days old. Its more of a cosmetic issue. His doctor sent us to a Cardiologist to verify that he didnt have a heart conditon. Everything is perfect.
