A member asked:
I've been waking up to burning in my ear cartilage. it only happens right after i wake up and no pain inside the ear. what could it be?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Sleeping on it: Sleeping on the ear, especially if the ear is folded, can cause this. If not sleeping on the ear does not make it go away, see your doctor in person.
