Answers:
Make sure you clean the hole about 3 times a day with whatever they gave you or rubbing alchol and then put some Neosproin (with a q-tip and wash your hands before you do anything) or something of that source every so often. I'd say maybe you're allergic to the earring, types of metals and alloys and such but if your right ear is fine then that's not the case. Whatever you do as long as you still want the peircing don't take the earring out. Also if you sleep on that side it might help to ice your ear lobe a bit before bed.
Good luck!
it might just be infected. it's no big deal though, put some peroxide on it every time you touch it, or twice a day for a week. if it doesn't get better u should talk to a doc, but it doesn't sound too serious.
