Could be blocked...: Or possibly infected. Please see your doctor have it checked. Your doctor may recommend applying hot damp compresses to try to soften any obstructing material or make it come to a head like a pimple.

Oil build-up?: It's possible that a person could experience some pain from clogging of normal montgomery glands, and get relief from gentle washing and placing a warm moist towel over them for 20 minutes at night.
