What Is The Cause Of Stretched Ear Lobes With A Pimple On The Tissue?

I have stretched earlobes, and I have a pimple on the tissue.. Could popping it cause any trauma or anything like that? It's a bit sore and uncomfortable to wear jewelry with it there, but I must as I have to have a professional appearance for work.
Thanks!

Hello

The pimple may need popping!
but i think you should not do it yourself , rather ask your doctor to do it as you may develop an infection!
Sometimes the pimple may resolve with antibiotics alone and i would like you to meet your doctor for the prescription. Thanks
