A member asked:

My earlobe is kind of swollen and firm to the touch. it seems as though theres a lump inside it. i don't have my ears pierced; i'm just concerned. ?

Acne: You likely have a clogged gland or acne lesion developing in your ear lobe. Use warm compresses and topical antibiotics or acne medications to help treat it.
