What Causes Pus And Blood Filled Bump In Front Of Ear?

a soft bump feel like it s fluid filled in front of my left ear. it dont hurt. it appeared like a month ago. i put a pin in it and tried to squeeze thinking it was a white head. a little came out but then blood came out. it went down a little then it returned i guess because i kept touching and picking with it. it s right in front of my bottom ear lobe on my face.

Dermatologist 's  Response
Hi

You seem to have developed an infective lesion .
Do not touch or squeeze the lesion .
Wash the affected area with lukewarm saline water twice daily.
Apply a topical antibiotic cream like neosporin or mupirocin over the lesion twice daily.
You might need a course of oral antibiotics if the lesion still tends to persist or increase.
Do not apply any other cream or oil over the affected area.
