There is a small pimple next to the ear hole. What should I do if there is a small pimple next to the ear hole?

After getting my ears pierced, I waited for them to heal with great difficulty. When I was changing the earrings, I found a small lump next to the ear hole. What should I do? Can it go away by itself?

If there are small bumps next to the ear holes, it may be due to secondary bacterial infection caused by ear piercing, local inflammation, or poor microcirculation. First of all, you should pay attention to rest and food hygiene, and do not eat hot peppers. If there are acute inflammation symptoms such as redness, swelling, heat and pain, you need to wipe iodine, apply piloxetine ointment after routine disinfection, and take anti-inflammatory treatment, and take vitamin C tablets, metronidazole tablets and Niuhuang Jiedu pills for symptomatic treatment. Do not come into contact with irritating chemicals and cosmetics during this period.

Your ear may be inflamed. When you pierced your ear, you poked the flesh that was not in the ear hole, causing internal inflammation and swelling. There was blood stasis that was not removed in time, resulting in the purple bumps (purple is a sign of blood stasis). To remove it, give up the ear piercing, and after the ear piercing is healed, pick open the small bumps to remove the blood stasis inside.

It is considered that an infection occurred after the ear piercing. The lump you feel is likely a keloid formed after the infection and inflammation. In this case, do not squeeze it casually to avoid worsening the infection. Under the current circumstances, it is no longer suitable to wear earrings.

If there is a lump in the ear hole, the first thing to consider is that it may be local scar hyperplasia. If you want to make it go away, you must first reduce the stimulation of the earring foreign body. If the scar hyperplasia is relatively large, further anti-scar treatment or surgical removal may be required.
