I am 17 and noticed a small painless cyst (?) inside my earlobe a few months ago. seemed to have went away, but today it came back, and was inflamed. pain has reduced as of right now. i have been doing home treatments. will this go away on its own?

In order to diagnose this, you need to see a doctor and have it examined. There is no way of knowing for sure what it is based on your description alone. Once a diagnosis is made after examining it, treatment, if needed, can be given. An ear, nose and throat doctor can also help treat it, depending on the results of your doctor’s examination. Good luck!
