The ears are always red. What's the matter?

The ears are always red, which may be a situation many people have experienced. Sometimes, red ears may be temporary, such as in cold weather, after sports or when you are excited. However, if the ears continue to redden, or are accompanied by other symptoms, such as pain, itching, swelling, etc., it may need attention. As a professional practitioner in the medical and aesthetic industry, I will introduce some reasons that may lead to red ears, and provide some relevant suggestions.

1、 Physiological causes

1. Temperature change: When the external temperature is low, the blood vessels of the ear will contract to reduce heat loss. When the temperature rises, the blood vessels will expand, causing the ears to redden. This is a normal physiological reaction and usually does not require special treatment.

2. Exercise: During exercise, the blood circulation of the body will be accelerated, and the ears will become red. This is because during exercise, the heart needs more blood supply, which causes the blood vessels of the ear to expand.

3. Emotional excitement: When people feel nervous, excited, angry and other emotions, the body will release some hormones, such as adrenaline, which will cause blood vessels to expand, thus making the ears red.

2、 Pathological causes

1. Ear infection: Ear infection is one of the common causes of red ears. Ear infection may be caused by bacteria, viruses or fungi. Common symptoms include ear pain, fever, redness, swelling, itching, etc. If ear infection is suspected, seek medical advice in time for diagnosis and treatment.

2. Ear allergy: Ear allergy may also cause red ears. Ear allergy may be caused by contact with allergens, such as cosmetics, shampoo, earrings, etc. Common symptoms include itchy ears, redness, swelling, rash, etc. If ear allergy is suspected, avoid contact with allergen, and seek medical advice for diagnosis and treatment.

3. Ear diseases: Some ear diseases, such as otitis media, otitis externa, perichondritis of auricle, may also cause red ears. These diseases are usually accompanied by other symptoms, such as ear pain, hearing loss, tinnitus, etc. If ear disease is suspected, seek medical advice in time for diagnosis and treatment.

3、 Medical and aesthetic reasons

1. Ear plastic surgery: Ear plastic surgery is a common medical and aesthetic surgery, such as auricle plastic surgery, earlobe plastic surgery, etc. During the recovery period after the operation, the ears may become red, swollen, painful, etc. This is a normal postoperative reaction, which usually disappears after a period of time. If the symptoms continue unabated, seek medical advice in time for treatment.

2. Ear injection: Ear injection is a common medical and aesthetic treatment method, such as hyaluronic acid injection, vitamin injection, etc. For a period of time after the injection, the ears may become red, swollen, painful, etc. This is a normal injection reaction, which usually disappears after a period of time. If the symptoms continue unabated, seek medical advice in time for treatment.

4、 Other reasons

1. Drug side effects: some drugs may cause red ears, such as antibiotics, antihypertensive drugs, antidepressants, etc. If you are taking these drugs and have red ears, you should consult your doctor in time to see if you need to adjust the drugs.

2. Systemic diseases: Some systemic diseases, such as lupus erythematosus and rheumatoid arthritis, may also cause red ears. These diseases are usually accompanied by other symptoms, such as fever, joint pain, rash, etc. If you are suspected of having a systemic disease, you should seek medical advice in time for diagnosis and treatment.
