A member asked:
I have sores on both ears that look like pressure sores, but they came on about a year ago. the cartilage of my ears seems brittle?

Cannot tell without seeing and examining (of course). In general, any condition going on for over a year could be serious and needs to be evaluated. Would start out by seeing a local physician (not ER or Urgent Care) and have this evaluated
