Does anyone ever get this?? Its not the lobe but an inch above in the round crease area. Its crusty for some reason and of course I've rubbed it so much its hot and red and irritated!! I don't have any pierced ears either. Its driving me nuts!!! I have to put some ice on it now.

IA. If you need me, just meow..
I"m sorry your ear hurts. I don't get this and I don't have any way to help you fix it but I can send you some
and maybe that'll help it get better.

That happens to me, but more often right behind my ear - it's just an infected sebaceous gland - the crustiness is sebum, is all.

Perfectly normal, just keep it clean and it will clear up - you can treat it with a little acne meds like a stridex pad to dry it up.

You'll live!
