What are Preauricular Tags?
Preauricular Tags are also well known as “Branchial Cleft Remnant or Accessory Tragus”. They may be due to genetic reasons or could be by birth. On the other hand, they could also develop at any time later in life. Preauricular Tags are little bumps that are located outside the ear. These are very small ranging from a few centimetres, and can be irregular in shape. These Tags may be soft or bumps and vary from person to person. Branchial Cleft Remnants are present on one or both ears. Usually, these are extra appendages that develop when a few tissues don’t bind together.
How does it work?
In adults, local anesthesia is injected to numb the site area but on the other hand, in smaller children general anesthesia is given. The doctor starts the procedure afterward by marking the preauricular tag and then with the help of a scalpel, a small incision is made to cut off the tag. After cutting, pressure is applied to control the bleeding and it is then stitched to close the incision made. An alcohol bandage is applied to tone down the risk of infection. This whole treatment takes at least 20-25 minutes. After the procedure, a little discomfort can be felt but it can be gone away with applying ice bags in case of irritation. The stitches are taken off after 2 weeks. This method is very safe and has very less risks of infections due to bacteria or germs.
