Something wrong with my ears?

Question

okay so sometimes i get bumps in my ear. they're small, but kind of hurt when i touch them. I clean my ears everyday with Q-tips & shower daily, so it's not like my ears are dirty. My ears are allergic to silver, so do you think they could be allergic to Q-tips?

Answer 1

no sounds like lil pimples, try a alcohol cleanser

Answer 2

If the lumps are inside your ear, they're very likely zits. I've had those before, and they hurt a LOT. When you touch them. Even if you keep your ears clean, you can still get them. No big deal. If the lumps are on the outside, namely the earlobe, they're probably calcium balls. They're often found around the piercings in your ears if you have them. They aren't a big deal either, but you can't do much about them. Sometimes you can pop them, but usually they just fade away over time.

Neither of them sound too serious, but you might give your doctor a phone call if you don't think it's a zit or a calcium ball.
