What Can Cause A Discharge From A Small Scratch Behind An Ear Piercing?
What could be wrong if my earlobe has a small scratch on the back of it near my piercing. I noticed that it was leaking water like fluid during class today and I was like what the world is happening. What could be happening?.... I also have issues with eczema, but my ear doesn t have a dry skin feeling

Hello,
It may be due to infection or chondritis or eczema. Maintain good hygiene, use anti-oedema measure locally.
Use oral and local antibiotics. Apply moisturizer cream in case of the dry environment.
If symptoms not improved please consult your ENT specialist he will examine and treat you accordingly.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
