Cauliflower ear is a condition where the outer ear becomes swollen and deformed due to repeated injury, commonly seen in sports like wrestling or boxing. It occurs when the cartilage in the ear is damaged and blood gathers between the cartilage and skin, leading to a lumpy, swollen appearance resembling a cauliflower. Without proper treatment, such as draining the gathered blood or surgery to reshape the ear, the deformity can become permanent.
