Suggest Treatment For Brownish Black Colored Bump On Earlobe

I just started stretching my ear lobes out and recently notices a large brownish black colored bump on my ear lobe. Before i was doing this I used to have a small hard bump in my ear for almost a year. Didn t think it would be a problem. Should I be concerned about this, and any ideas what this brownish black bump is?

Hello

The lump may be due to an infection or a condition called as keloid , please meet your doctor for this, as the bump may slowly increase in size and can be cosmetically disfiguring.

Take care
