I have cauliflower ear, will Snugs work for me?
Yes, we have made Snugs for a number of customers with cauliflower ear, including former Team GB Judo player Bobby Rich.
Cauliflower ear is a condition that occurs when the ear sustains a significant amount of blunt force trauma or repeated injury, typically in contact sports like wrestling, boxing, or rugby. The trauma causes bleeding between the ear's cartilage and its overlying skin, leading to a collection of blood (hematoma) or fluid in the space. Without proper treatment, the blood or fluid can harden and form scar tissue, resulting in the ear's characteristic swollen, misshapen appearance, resembling that of a cauliflower.
If you have cauliflower ear, then we will require a professional fit, using your physical ear impressions, in order to make your Snugs. This ensures the moulds will fit the exact contours of your ears for a secure fit. If you have any doubts, please contact us to discuss your needs.
