Above the auricle of the outer ear: Artery: Posterior auricular artery: Nerve: Branches to auricular muscle from posterior auricular nerve of facial nerve (cranial nerve VII) Actions: Pulls ear upward: Identifiers; Latin: musculus auricularis superior: TA98: A04.1.03.021: TA2: 2090: FMA: 46855: Anatomical terms of muscle
The posterior auricular muscle is found behind the auricle of the outer ear. [1] It consists of two or three fleshy fasciculi. These arise from the mastoid part of the temporal bone by short aponeurotic fibers. [1] They insert into the lower part of the cranial surface of the auricle of the outer ear. [1]
The great auricular nerve is a cutaneous (sensory) nerve of the head. It originates from the second and third cervical (spinal) nerves (C2-C3) of the cervical plexus.It provides sensory innervation to the skin over the parotid gland and the mastoid process, parts of the outer ear, and to the parotid gland and its fascia.
The auriculotemporal nerve is a sensory branch of the mandibular nerve (CN V 3) that runs with the superficial temporal artery and vein, and provides sensory innervation to parts of the external ear, scalp, and temporomandibular joint. The nerve also conveys post-ganglionic parasympathetic fibres from the otic ganglion to the parotid gland. [1]
The tragicus, also called the tragus muscle or Valsalva muscle, [1] is an intrinsic muscle of the outer ear. It is a short, flattened vertical band on the lateral surface of the tragus . [ 1 ]

Start by holding the handles at shoulder height. Then press the band up over your head, extending both arms fully into an overhead press. Release back down to the starting position and repeat 10 ...
The outer ear, external ear, or auris externa is the external part of the ear, which consists of the auricle (also pinna) and the ear canal. [1] It gathers sound energy and focuses it on the eardrum ( tympanic membrane ).
