What Causes Painful Pimples Appear In Ear Lobe?

Hi! I am 24, 5 8 ,130#, no medical history to speak of. I occasionally get these balls in my earlobes. It feels like a pimple. It gets annoyingly big and painful. This last time I got it, the pain went away finally and got smaller. But it s still there after a month or 2. Any ideas what it is?
