Why do I keep getting acne bumps in my ears?

[Anonymous]

I don't get it. I keep getting these really big and sore puss bumps in my ear or on the outer part of my ear and it's so embarassing. I take good care of my ears. I clean them everyday properly. Is it because of the products I use in my hair? I have acne on my face as well, but those bumps are never as bad as the one's I get in my ear. What the hell is wrong with me? Please help!

Oh I hate that. I get them occasionally and they hurt worse than regular ones in my opinion. I'm not sure why, but like they say every pore is an opportunity. I would perhaps mention the next time you are at your gp just in case. But maybe use some witch hazel toner on them (the outside only) when you go over your face? I use it for my acne and it seems to work well, I only break out on my nose occasionally and like once in a while on my chin near my period.

Nothings wrong with you.

I'm not sure we have the same affliction. I sweat a lot & use ear-buds a lot too. I too get white heads in my ears. I use a swab & rubbing alcohol. I rub it on them. It stings a lot but they dry up in a hurry.

Give it a try. What do you have to loose?

Not too abnormal to sweat there. Do what the Godfather says and all will be ok
