Ear cut from patka

[Guest Anon]

I am fourteen years old and I wear a patka. Since I play a lot of sports and hate when my hair comes out from my sideburns I tie my patka really tight. Recently, the skin behind my ears has gotten cut and hurt when I tie a patka. I don't want to tie the patka above the cuts because then other people will see them and I think I am crazy. I also don't want to wear a pag or anything. Please help. What should I do? My ears hurt really badly when I tie the patka every morning.

Wear a fabric head wrap/headband under your patka. It will provide padding and prevent cuts.

Cotton Wool can also help

If you cover your ears no doubt that your patka will not fall off.

It's mainly due to friction but it depends on the material too sometimes.

I would put something that is thin and soft inside of your ear so it feels comfortable and it won't hurt your ears, otherwise you will have to show the cuts and get some ointment for it.

Try tie your patka abit higher from behind one week and normal level another week. Alternate until yoo skin 'recovers' then keep the alternation. Worked for me
