How To Treat Cracking Behind Ears, Leakage Of Clear Fluid And Crusting?
I have very bad cracking behind my ears with leakage of clear fluid, sometime blood and very bad crusting. I have used Tea Tree oil and Vitamin E oil. It has not gone away and just returns once the oils have gone away. What is this and how can I treat it?

Hi
Welcome to HealthcareMagic forum
You seem to be suffering from Otitis externa, secondary to Eczema of the skin of the outer ear. I would suggest you to use a skin ointment containing a mixture of antiseptic and steroid. Avoid using any sort of oil in the ear.
Regards
