Abstract
In brief Sports in which the ear may sustain blows or experience changes in ambient pressure can pose dangers to the ear. Possible injuries include "cauliflower ear"- classic to wrestlers- auricular lacerations, auricular avulsions, and barotrauma. Prompt treatment can preserve ear structure and function. Properly protecting the ear is the best defense against trauma.
