    Scar tissue build up- ear
    I have an industruial piercing in my ear and now at one of the holes there is a small red bump. It doesn't hurt, its just like a hard ball but it sticks out. I was told that it was scar tissue build-up, but I was wondering is there any other way I can get rid of it, without surgery?

    Almost looks like a slight migration. Yes it is scar tissue. I would try mederma or any other scar removal cream before any type of surgey.
