MY little Chin of 3 months has some little red bumps on just one ear. It is very tiny and doesnt seem to bother him.
Should I be worried?
Thank you.
 
You can try rubbing some bag balm or vitamin E (poke a capsule and squeeze it out) gently into the ear and see if that helps. Sometimes it's just a dry ear and needs to work the flakes off.
 
Thank you Tunes
It's not going to be easy but i will do my best :laughitup:
 
bag balm is my new best friend for my chin with dry ears...if it doesn't clear up after that I'd post pics and do a vet trip
 
Also just wanted to mention with chins with light colored ears, they can get "bruises." My pink white boy kept getting purplish/reddish marks on his ears, and they would go away after awhile. Though I suspect this isn't the case with your little one, since the red marks are so small.

But do watch out for the redness getting bigger, and flakier. Also if there is scratching. May be a sign of fungus.
