Picture of Auricular Tags

Auricular tags are small skin tags or nodules that form in the front of the outside of the ear. They are generally harmless nubs of tissue and can be surgically removed. Sometimes the tags contain cartilage which requires a slightly more involved removal but is also a relatively easy procedure.
