A pimple or acne is one of the most common skin issues that is generally known to affect teenagers. However, it is not uncommon for people across different age groups to face this problem. In addition to affecting the most common areas of face and neck, pimples might also develop in various parts of the ears. In fact, many people suffer from the discomfort of a pimple in ear causing jaw pain. Countless medicated and cosmetic products available in the market claim to offer lasting relief from this skin condition. Sadly, a majority of them are not too effective when it comes to treating pimple in the ear. Thankfully the problem can be easily resolved with the help of various home remedies for a pimple in ear treatment. Before learning about these remedies, it is essential to consider the various aspects of an ear pimple as explained below.
An Overview Of Pimple In Ear
A pimple can develop anywhere inside the ear, including the external ear, behind the ear or even inside the ear canal. However, the pimple in the ear canal is often the most irritating and painful and can even hinder proper hearing. In most cases, the pimples formed on the other parts of the ear are generally painless and don’t cause much discomfort. There are several reasons that can result in the development of a pimple in the earlobe and other parts of the ear. These might include medication, poor hygiene, hormonal changes or even as an after effect of ear infections. Irrespective of the reasons, the following home remedies can prove quite effective in treating pimple in an ear.
Tea Tree Oil
Tea tree oil is renowned for its antibacterial properties, which makes it extremely effective in fighting bacteria associated with pimples. Whether you are facing the problem of a pimple behind an ear or inside the ear canal, a few drops of tea tree oil is the perfect remedy. All you need to do is dab a small amount of this oil on the pimple with the help of a cotton bud. Repeat the process 2-3 times a day and the pimple will surely be eliminated within a few days.
Honey And Cinnamon
The combination of honey and cinnamon works effectively against the acne-causing bacteria. They thus prove to be a great choice for people seeking a natural pimple in ear canal remedy. You just need to thoroughly mix a small amount of cinnamon powder with honey. Then using a cotton bud or a clean finger, dab this mixture on the pimple and leave it to dry. Once the mixture has dried, wipe it off using a damp cotton bud or cotton ball. Repeat the process 2-3 times a day to get faster results.
Neem And Turmeric
The anti-inflammatory properties of both neem and turmeric prove extremely effective in tackling the acne-causing bacteria. Â This is what makes this combination a highly recommended home remedy for a pimple in an ear. Grind a few fresh and clean neem leaves into a paste and add a bit of turmeric powder to it. Apply the paste on the pimple with the help of a clean finger and leave it on till it dries. Clean the dried mixture with the help of a damp cotton swab. Repeat the process every day to get rid of a pimple in your ear in a few days time.

In fact, onion is one of the best ways to treat a recurring pimple in an ear and other parts of the body. To use this treatment method, the onion should be cut in two halves and one half should be 30-60 seconds. This heated onion should be wrapped in cheesecloth and then should be placed on the pimple till the onion cools down. A simpler method is to extract the juice of a crushed onion and apply it is few drops directly on the pimple. Either process needs to be repeated 2-3 times a day to get fast results.
Olive Oil
Olive oil is known for its various health benefits, including the treatment of pimples in a natural manner. The olive oil should be warmed slightly and then its few drops should be applied to a pimple with the help of a dropper. The warm oil helps in dissolving the wax and dirt around a pimple ensuring its faster elimination. It also provides relief from a pimple in ear symptoms such as itching and redness. The olive oil can also be applied topically on the pimple with the help of a cotton bud. The process should be repeated 2-3 times a day to get faster results.

The application of this method is simple and comprises of dipping a black tea bag in warm water for a minute. Then the excess water should be drained from the tea bag, which should then be placed directly on the pimple until it cools down.
