Red ear syndrome involves attacks of unilateral ear discomfort and redness. A new case successfully responded to greater auricular nerve blockade, suggesting a potential treatment pathway.

Area of Science:

  • Neurology
  • Pain Medicine
  • Otolaryngology

Background:

  • Red ear syndrome (RES) is a rare condition characterized by recurrent episodes of unilateral ear pain, burning, and erythema.
  • First described in 1994, approximately 60 cases have been documented, often associated with primary headaches or neuralgias.

Observation:

  • This report details a novel case of RES presenting with characteristic symptoms.
  • The patient experienced unilateral ear discomfort and redness during episodes.
  • Associated conditions like upper cervical spine disorders were considered.

Findings:

  • The presented case of red ear syndrome showed significant improvement following a greater auricular nerve block.
  • This intervention targeted a specific nerve implicated in ear sensation and pain pathways.

Implications:

  • Greater auricular nerve blockade represents a potential therapeutic option for managing red ear syndrome.
  • Further research into the pathophysiology of RES may elucidate its connection to neuralgias and cervical spine issues.
  • This case contributes to the understanding and management of this uncommon neurological disorder.
