A member asked:
I've noticed a hard, painful, bulging near the concha of my left ear, right underneath the antihelix and the pain keeps increasing. what should i do?

Warm compresses: A first step is to try warm compresses. If you develop redness, increased pain, or any fever, this may be an infection that needs to be drained. If it doesn't go away within a few days, do see the doctor for evaluation.
