How Should An Ear Concha Lump With Pain Be Treated?

I have a huge bump, like a pimple but doesn t have a white head to indicate puss. I ve tried to pop it but it s awkawrdly positioned in my ear on the concha. It s doubled in size since I ve been touching it and it hurts non stop, more so when I touch it or lay on my ear. I m not sure what to do.
