Small ball in earlobe

2017-10-23 21:09:01
Around a month or two ago, I felt this really small ball in my earlobe. I searched it up and it matched with a "Sebaceous cyst". According to other people, it's supposed to go away after a few days but the lump has been present for several weeks already. Should I continue waiting? Do I seek medical attention? Is it serious?
