If you missed out the recent fight between Kimbo Slice vs James Thompson, James Thompson had suffered from a Cauliflower Ear in that fight.

Why did the strange condition of Cauliflower Ear occur during the fight between Kimbo Slice vs James Thompson ? Well, Cauliflower Ear which by its medical name known as hematoma auris or perichondrial hematoma is actually quite common amongst athletes of high impact contact sports. These athletes can range from rugby players, people who practices martial arts and boxers in the ring.

In this condition of Cauliflower Ear, which happened in the match between Kimbo Slice vs James Thompson where James Thompson was suffering from a Cauliflower Ear syndrome, what happened was that the external portion of his ear caught a heavy blow. This blow caused a blood clot and some other bodily fluid to be trapped under the perichondrium.

As you know, cartilage under the skin receives its nutrients from the underlying perichondrium. And this clot prevents the nutrients from reaching the cartilage, causing it to die. Hence, Cauliflower Ear syndrome just like the one between the match of Kimbo Slice vs James Thompson is formed since it leads to a formation of fibrous tissue in the overlying skin.

When this situation happens, the outer ear swells permanently and deforms, resembling a cauliflower hence the name Cauliflower Ear.

As for the cure for Cauliflower Ear, if the swelling is not infected, drainage of the haematoma can help, but frequently the swelling will refill rapidly as the lining to the space still bleeds or produces an inflammatory exudate.

If the swelling still does not go away, drainage and antibiotics drugs may need necessary to cure the Cauliflower Ear situation.

Cauliflower Ear is a condition that grapplers deal with from their head rubbing the mat so much. Wrestlers that do not use head gear suffer from the same thing. I have a friend you was a state ranked wrestler in high school and now he is almost 30 and he still has the condition some what.

Yea .. I think that the condition is some what permanent .. because of the cartilage tissue that happens when in a Cauliflower Ear situation.
