Bump Behind Ear, Blister. What Is It? Treatment?

Hi, I noticed a small slightly painful to the touch bump behind my ear maybe a week ago. My fiance said he couldn t see anything so I didn t worry about, but this morning I woke up and it hurt a little bit more so I asked him to look at it and he said it looks like a red blister with some skin coming off it. It is still sore when I dont touch it but painful when I do touch it. What could this be? How do I treat it?
