What is the cause and treatment for 6 year old with rash and crusty ears?
Patient: My 6 year old daughter has a rash behind her ear. Her ear gets crusty at the end and she has a cut at the bottom of her ear where her ear connects to her head. That seems to leak out a clear fluid. Now the rash has spread to the back of her neck. What could it be?She also says it itches. Doctor: Hi Dear Welcome to the HCM,Fungal infection. tenia capitis and otomysois may be the cause.Wash the hairs with ketoconazole shampoo.Antifungal drops to be poured in the ears.Apply some neosporin ointment in the ulcerated area.Hope the query is answered.thanks
