it is probably a tiny cyst but don't try and squeeze it like a pimple or you will lkely make it worse. if it doesn't hurt leave it alone. if it gets bigger sore or drains from the pierced site you will need to seek medical care. tiny inclusion or sebaceous (oil gland) cysts are common in people with pierced ears. as you know i have no way of examining your earlobe first-hand so if you have any doubts or concerns it would be best to see a medical provider for a proper exam.
