Q: Lump In Ear Lobe
asked by: jonss on September 27th, 2007

Hi,

I recently noticed that there's a small lump inside of my ear lobe.

It's on my left ear and it's towards the edge of the lobe, right where it connects to my head.

It doesn't hurt at all unless I squeeze it. (I haven't squeezed it hard, but I lightly squeezed it when I first noticed it).

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

HI, I also have this in my left earlobe. It is nothing bad just a cyst which is not harmfull maybe only a little annoying at times. You can see your doctor if you want it removed. I can live with it so i chose to just keep it since you cant really notice mine that much. Only thing is im always messin with it so it gets a little annoying at times.

Hello! I have this on my right ear lobe. My doctor said it is a cyst, nothing harmful.Caused by a blocked pore in the skin and the excess sebum, the oil that prevents your skin from cracking, builds up causing a lump under the skin. Much like spots accept under the skin. These can occur along the neckline also, due to the proximity of two glands to the skin. My father had one removed from his cheek. The operation is done while you are awake local pain reliever's are used and the process is painless with brilliant result's. The scar is invisible.
