swollen ear lobe :( irritating and getting worse...?!


Question: Swollen ear lobe :( irritating and getting worse...?
I remember about 4 years ago my ear lobes were swollen up and were really disgusting and puss-filled for a week or two. After that, it went away. i always had this lump in my ear which didn't hurt but was annoying. every few months it would swell up and have more "puss" coming out of it. after a couple years that stopped and it existed, until now, just as a small ball in my ear lobe. now something has awoken the beast and its all swollen up and irritating again.
does anyone know what this is?

You might be allergic to a certain kind of metal and you need to wear special earrings. Go see an Ear, Nose, and Throat doctor to find out if it's an allergic reaction to your earrings or if it's something else.
