Leprosy of the outer ear is a skin nodule at the beginning. Can develop into tumor-like, can also form ulcers and scars, leading to tissue defects, ear irritation, itching, and then leprosy.

The large auricular nerve can be thickened and thickened by leprosy invasion, the facial nerve can be spasm due to lesion invasion stimulus, and new peripheral facial paralysis can be oppressed by the lesion. The simultaneous occurrence of spasm and facial paralysis is a feature of leprosy facial paralysis.
