I Have A Painful Crusty-like Bump Inside My Right Ear.

I have a painful crusty-like bump inside my right ear. It is almost big enough to block my ear opening. I had an ear infection in my other ear and it was so bad it had swell shut...Swimmers ear I presume. I used a home remedy and it is mostly healed but now this other ear is giving me issues..What can I do?My immune system seems like it is not functioning from boil in my arm to my left ear and now my right..help?

Hi u have a boil inside your ear.
Its nothing but infection of the hair follicle.
Its a very painful conditions.
Treatment: antibiotics and anti inflammatory medication.
If swelling doesnt reduce or pain doesn't reduce u need to open up the boil.
So do consult ENT doctor for this.
