A member asked:
Pimple in ear lobe is a symptom of what?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Irritation follicle: Earlobe pimples are usually caused by an irritation around a hair follicle that causes accumulation of pus. Generally, it may be due to either pressure on the earlobe ( hats, earphones, etc) or a chemical irritation such as hairspray, gel, etc. At times they form without any cause.
