All you do is get a doctor/nurse to put packing in your ear and then let it drip out a few days make sure to ask when to visit (next check up) after next check up they-
will either let the hole heal or put another packing in so this way all the liquid comes dripping out of the packing and hopefully all the infection comes out like mine did so now i don't have to get surgery (so far).
After you are done with packing just check every once and a while to see if it gets worse or not . P.s. the packing might pop out like mine did so just don't switch bandage thing they put on your ear at night don't move it IF YOU ARE SCARED OF GETTING PACKING IN THEIR IS NOTHING TO BE SCARED OF!!! THING OF IT THIS WAY WOULD YOU RATHER HAVE SURGERY OR GET A LITTLE CUT FROM PUTTING IN THE PACKING OR TO GET RID OF INFECTION GET SURGERY. Hope this helps! :)

How do i clean out a preauricular pit?
Squeeze the pit gently, like a pimple. Some discharge will come out - usually quite smelly. Sometimes using a tissue helps, as it's not as sharp as using fingernails. Being gentle is a must! Too much squeezing can cause bruising or infection. Depending on how much discharge your pit collects, squeezing twice a week should be ok.

What is small hole above ear?
This is known in the biz as a "preauricular pit." For the sake of orientation, here's a bit of anatomy: the outer rim of the ear is called the helix. The area where the helix is attached to the face is known as the helical root. A preauricular pit is a tiny (1 to 2 millimeter) hole in the skin of the helical root.Pits are present at birth; they form during early fetal development. In the 5th to 6th week post-conception, 6 tiny lumps of tissue begin merging, and by the 20th fetal week, these lumps have formed the external ear. If this process is something less than perfect, any number of external ear anomalies may result. Preauricular pits are (arguably) one of the milder anomalies that may result from imperfect external ear development. They are skin-lined and are typically less than one inch in depth.Pits are significant for two reasons. First, pits can become infected. An infected pit usually presents as a soft or hard swelling at the helical root; press on the swollen area, and a drop of pus will emerge from the pit. This can be treated with antibiotics, of course, but if the pit keeps getting infected you would probably want to have it surgically removed. This can be done under local anesthesia. You must make sure that your surgeon is familiar with pits. Simply excising the outer (visible) portion of the pit is inadequate; the surgeon must excise the entire pit. An ear, nose and throat surgeon would be the best choice for this procedure, since we all have experience with pits.Pits are also significant because they can be an indicator for other ear problems. In other words, there is a higher-than-chance association of pits with other (less visible) ear anomalies. These "deeper" anomalies are important because they usually impair hearing to some degree. You may or may not have noticed such a hearing loss; the loss may be mild, and may easily have gone unnoticed on school audiograms.Philip Roy Jones. Vancouver bc, prev Braintree Essex England
