I felt some tenderness in my earlobe, then eventually a pimple appeared. I figured that it was fairly normal so I bursted it and gradually it began to swell more and more. I was able to drain some pus out, but each time my earlobe would seem to get bit more irritated and swollen. The area of the pimple is now healed but the swellen is still present. My regular doctor s office is closed for next couple days. What should I do in the meantime?
