What Causes Painful Bump Near Earlobe?

I have this really painful bump that appeared over night that is near my earlobe. It's caused my earlobe to well and i'm not sure if its just an every day pimple. I've recently had a wisdom tooth come through on the same side as the bump, could these be related?
