    That looks very promising... Did you check to make sure it was not a gas bubble???

      I think it's a bubble.

        How do I check for a gas bubble, try and pop it like a pimple or something ?

          Gently but firmly rub a toothpick over it. Wet to soften the tip first. If it creases or you see some change it's a bubble.

              Yes, looks like a bubble to me too, at best a chip because the shape doesn't resemble any part of the ear.

                  It probably just a bubble. The spot doesn't look anything like the ear at all. Good eye though. I probably would have missed that all together

                    I think its a boil. Apply a very hot damp cloth and try to open it and let it drain.

                      Sure looks like a gaseous bubble.

                            ROFL! I thought it was a wart -- apply a hot iron and watch it freeze!
