I have a lump in my ear, just turned up this morning. Its painful to touch and is under the skin. Its just behind and abit up from my tragus. Is it just an ifection or should I get it checked out?:confused:

If it is painful, it is either an infection or a bleed under the skin.
In either case, you should get it checked if it's still there today, which is the day after.

Hey yeah thanks, its gone down now.. And hurts a lot less. Thanks for the advice :o

It could have been a pimple hon :D you can get them on your ears too. You can get pimples anywhere. (and I mean ANYWHERE)

Nah its probably an absess... just put tea tree oil on it every day until it's ready to pop, or until it goes away. I've had them a ton. They suck d: Hope that helps - Micaela
