Hi, auricular sinuses are congenital malformations formed during the development of pinna. The treatment is the excision of entire tract of the sinus and the wound heals in few days. In case the residual disease is there after excision, the wound will not heal completely and discharge can continue or reappear. please see an ENT and if a discharge is present, get a culture sensitivity done. Use specific antibiotics after culture and if problem still persists, get a sonogram done and a revision surgery will be required. Regards
