I got my cartilage pierced last month, and for the past two days ive noticed that when twist it, sometimes it'd get stuck. I looked and there's a little bubble on the back of my ear. Does that mean my ears infected? It doesn't hurt or anything, unless i try laying on the side i got it done sometimes. Will it go away or something? It's nothing big, but it just showed up. Could it be from irritation? I tried to pop it but i whimped out, it bled a little.

These form if a piercing has been knocked suddenly...they usually go away after a while( I had one) Clean it regularly and it should go away :)
Always remember to always wash your hands before messing with the piercing and clean it at least once a day.
