What Is The Cause Of Dry And Rough Ears And White Bumps On Ear?

I have noticed the last few days my ears have been dry and rough to the touch. I then realized their are small pinpoint white bumps on the back of my ear. Today I have noticed the bottom of only one o my ears is now turning reddish purple. I am not in any pain and it doesn t itch. What is it and how can I treat it?

Hello,
It seems that you have had exposure to cold.
Get a dermatologist ie skin specialist consultation done,to get examined for the skin lesion.
Till then you can start with antihistaminics.
