    Evening all.
    Can anybody point me in the right direction as to what to do.
    Bout two years ago or so I pierced my own ear and everything was fine. Then a few months after I developped this lump on the back of my ear. It's really starting to annoy me with it just being there,does anyone know what it is and what the remedy is?
    Thanks in advance.

    Most likely a keloid/scar. Some people say vitamin e or bio oil massages can get rid of em. I used chamomile tea soaks which worked well also.
