Today I woke up with an ear swelling. I don’t remember that I hurt it, I haven’t pierced it recently. Swelling is not big, but tender and sore, red….anyway I will wait till Monday morning to see what will happen.
A number of things besides injury can cause ear swelling, for example infection or allergic reaction on something. Another cause of ear swelling: a boil-like infection near the ear canal in people who have a tendency toward acne, finally, swimmer's ear, a cause of ear pain and discharge, can sometimes result in swelling that can actually close the ear canal. See a doctor!
