Problems with Ears Cauliflower Ears That Is
Got an email today asking about Cauliflower Ears and what can be done about them. The wrestler’s ears are filling up with fluid that needs to be drained.
Here is my email back to them:
I am not sure if this helps or not, but I have seen some athletic trainers put extra foam around the inside of the head gear (usually I have seen it with the Cliff Keen Signature). The extra foam will give it a little extra room for his ear. Make sure the head gear is fit properly so it does not move around and cause injury to his ear.
My brother his Senior year had to have surgery on his ear (he saw a plastic surgeon that specialized in ears). He did have to sit out a few days of practice to let his ear heal properly (he lifted weights and did extra conditioning). He never had problems with his ears filling up again.
Not a medical doctor so talk to one about my ideas!
