Don't pick at it what ever you do! Germs from your fingers will infect it! Try dipping a q-tip in peroxide and put it on it then when that dries apply a triple antibiotic ointment like neosporin on it, it should go away if you repeat this, if not then I would make and appointment with the doc.

Yes it can get infected if it is not allready. Put some antibiotic cream on it and cover it with a bandaid of some sort and leave it alone!

might be infected. Clean it, put some tripple antibiotic (neosporin) on it and put a bandaid on it to keep you from picking at it.

I used to have those problems and I just want it to go from my ear.
I understandyour feelings and you just have to let it go. if you go and pick it, it will take a hell of time to heal
if you stop doing that, you'll find it heals a.s.a.p.
