What Does A Bump Behind Ear Indicate?

I have this weird bump behind my ear...& whenever I pop it, puss then blood comes out. It s bigger than a pimple & doesn t have a white head on it. I ve started getting it after I got my 4th hole done. But usually once I pop it, it goes away for a month or 2

Hi,
it seems that there might be having infection due to ear piercing.
Clean the part and apply antibiotic cream locally.
If swelling or pain increases, go for antibiotic medicine course for 3 days.
Ok and take care.
