What's this lump in my ear lobe next to my piercing? just noticed this morning. slightly sore. i can move it a little beneath the tissue.

Early abscess: This could be acne but is probably an early abscess. You need to have it checked by a doctor. You may need an antibiotic. Please keep the ear ring area clean and dry. Good luck.
