My 3 year old son has had small hacks under earlobes which heal then re-open! The problem has been occurring now for almost a year and the doctr has prescribed an antibiotic cream with steriod in it. The cream heals the cuts within a few days and then I have to use vaseline under the ears from then on. As soon as I stop using the vaseline for a day or two the cuts open u again. Any ideas why this would be happening.
