No, not unless your ear is struck repeatedly with the phone.

Cauliflower ear is a deformity of the external ear caused by infection or trauma; boxers, wrestlers and Rugby players are prone to this.

This normally occurs when small blood vessels that supply the outer portions of the ear become damaged or blocked by blood clots, this results in permanent deformation of the outer portions of the ear, so that the ear may resemble a "cauliflower".

If the damage and condition already exists if may be able to be treated through cosmetic surgery.

No, I play Rugby and im Tighthead prop, So you would expect me to have cauliflower ears :]...But i do not (yet) I have had many incident where my ear has been hurting, and it puts thought to mind where i might be developing cauliflower ears...But i have not yet developed them..It more than likely is just earache, Or you've caught your ear on something during the sport you take part in...If its rugby you play you may want to get a scrum cap, or headband...Or proper headgear for some kind of martial art... I would only worry about cauliflower ears if the pain consists and your ear(s) begin to swell.. Hope this helps.
