I have a cyst in my left earlobe are there any home remedies or easy way to get rid of it? its been feeling like its on fire lately and has got bigger

No guaranteed: Home remedies and usually requires complete excision of the cyst not just drainage. Warm compresses and oral antibiotics can help, but it may require drainage, waiting for the inflammation to resolve and then elective excision when small and painless. Don't manipulate it.
