Q: Lump in Earlobe
asked by: luvtoastyguyz on March 23rd, 2009

A few months ago I noticed a small lump in my right earlobe. I thought it was just a pimple or something like that so I tried to push the center out of it. Some pus came out and something that I thought was the center came out. I assumed that it would heal up, but it never did. It became red and hot and began to bleed and pus often. My dad tried to help open it up and release some of the pressure by sticking a needle in it. However, the needle wouldn't go very far into my ear because whatever it is, is very hard. We tried pushing it out but when I put pressure on it, it is like whatever is in there spreads out and disappears. You can feel it when there is no pressure being applies but when you push on it...nothing. I decided to just leave it alone, but it has still not gone away. That was about November and this is March. I didn't think much about it and just left it alone since the pain went away and the bleeding and pusing stopped. However, today I noticed a second bump. This one is right where my ear attaches to my cheek. This one is acting the exact same way. What do you think this is and how can I fix it?

I have the exact same thing going on in my left ear. It go pretty bad about 2 years ago. I haven't messed with it, but still it won't go away. Some doctor please get on here and let us know something if you happen to be skilled in ear, nose and throat backgrounds. Thank you

I know what you mean, i have also gotten a lump on te inner ear in the flap part. I thought it was a pimple before and i popped it and some white/clear puss came out and it was a little red. It was red and sore for a little and then it went away after a couple of days. It still bothers me once in a while, and i get weir almost robot sounding noises sometimes, and when people talk. it gets kinda annoying.
