Answers:
Sometimes, these 'scar ball' things appear inside or near the piercing area!. These can be caused by irritation, mild infection of the wound, or even allergic reactions to the metal that the earring is made of!.

I can't diagnose this as serious or not (seeing that I'm not a doctor) but with experience, I can tell you that it is fairly common to see this within the first month or two of getting a piercing!.

I would try getting a hypoallergenic earring, cleaning the area with Bactine, Hydrogen Peroxide, or an antibacterial ointment, and waiting about 1-2 weeks!. If it hasn't healed up by then, you should see a doctor!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

u should go see ur doctor, that doesn't sound normal!. hope everything works outWww@Answer-Health@Com
