CAULIFLOWER EAR.wmv

Ok so what is Cauliflower Ear...Good question. Cauliflower ear is most commonly found amongst MMA Fighters & Grappler's such as Wrestlers, Sambo, Jui-Jitsu and Judo practitioners and other sports like Rugby.

Basically your ear suffers a blow (hitting or digging your ear into something)busting up the cartilage. This causes a blood cot and pus to collect under the skin of your ear which basically seperates the cartilage from its nutrients and other crap inside your ear which in turn causes it to die. So since its swelled up with fluid it warps the shape of your ear and eventually it scars up and stays that way. So everyone this happens to gets a really ugly ear.

You can drain your ear so it wont be as bad but if you keep training or competing it just keeps coming back so basically it gets worse and worse..and that my friends is Cauliflower Ear in a nut shell

i just started wrestling in highschool as a freshman and one of my ears already has a swolen bump in it, i dont know why it started so qquickly

Well its most likely 1 of 3 things. 1 your being taken down spending sum time on your stomach getting cranked in power half so when you turn your face over the bone in his forearm is digging into your ear. 2.Your working hard blasting thru on your double legs cutting the corner good digging in with you ear. Lastly 3 you tying up alot being a rookie & when in collar tie 1 of u isnt going ear to ear & digging his head into your ear cause they say ear to ear is queer (lil inside wrestling joke)

[i1wingedangel]

that and i guess the easiest possiblity is you arent wearing your head gear in practice. Im sure its one of these things if not then idk youve been blessed with good ears and you get to walk around having girls go omg eww wtf is wrong with your ear. DONT DO WHAT I DID!!! DONT DRAIN IT LATER ON IN LIFE YOU'LL BE LIKE GAWD DAMN IT WHY DID I DO THAT

@i1wingedangel if training time it happns what should i do?

[i1wingedangel]

@Freestyleartclub Simple.....simple....wear wrestling head gear...not the kind that the ear pieaces are shitty plastic that can bend in and touch your ear....or if its swollen to the point that pretty much all head gear rub against just wrap the ear pieace like a million times with athletic tape and then cut out the inside so you can fit your big ass ear in it... that way itll add extra cushion creating space for the ear... oh yea and drain it....like every day.....

@shms58 see a doctor about taking care of it NOW, BEFORE it hardens and you have to go thru the crap like i1wingedangel said, later in life! LOL It's not fun, pretty, OR CHEAP! :-) Best of luck in your mat life, and keep training!!!
