A big big bump on my ear

Question

Asked for Female, 17 Years

So all of a sudden I notice a bump in the middle of my outer ear and I’m scared it could be infected from my cartilage piercing but the bump is no where near it, it isn’t usual for me to have this bump on my ear, it’s a stiff bump and I just put ice on it before as well so I don’t know if that could be a reason.
