Detailed explanation-1: -The tragus is a small pointed eminence of the external ear, situated in front of the concha, and projecting backward over the meatus.
Detailed explanation-2: -Normal external ear anatomy The central part of the ear is shaped like a conch sea shell, and is called the concha. There is a small bump in front of the ear canal called the tragus. On the other side of the concha is another bump called the antitragus. The ear is made primarily of cartilage covered by skin.
Detailed explanation-3: -If it hurts to move your pinna/auricle or push firmly on the tragus (the flap of tissue at the ear opening), then otitis externa is the most likely cause. One form of otitis externa is called swimmer’s ear. Frequent water exposure from bathing or showering can be as contributory as swimming.
