What is the function of the ear lobe?
As far as I can tell the ear lobe serves no real function as far as from a medical standpoint. I have known several people with no ear lobes & they function just fine in all ways. About the only things they are good for is appearance, they may make the ear look more or less attractive depending how they are shaped. The other is to hang things on them, either clipped on or through a hole or holes made in them, for ornamental purposes as many do.
