My daughter got the same thing after being in the hospital and not
wearing the helmet and then having an adjustment w/out her there.
(She wasn't allowed in places where kids were since they were worried
about her catching anything after having RSV and secondary
pnemonia.) I put antibiotic cream and one of those round bandaids on
the ear and it healed in 2 days (we didn't wear the helmet until it
healed b/c we could see where it rubbed). I then loosened the band
until we could get back to CT to prevent her ear from rubbing again.
This week our OT at CT trimmed it so it wouldn't touch that ear and
we are good to go.
