I have had pain in one ears for ages when I’m asleep bad enough to wake me up. Now I have noticed a small white pimple. On the inside cartilage. Anyone any experience and should I just wait for it to go? So hard to get gp appointment!

If it's sore enough to wake you I'd only give it a day or so. Depending on how painful it is. If no improvement then I'd speak with the doctor. Just in case of infection.

Maybe have a word with a Pharmacist? I understand they can deal with some minor problems, if you can’t see your GP easily.

Definitely go to the pharmacist first, if you ve seen my recent thread I had a very good experience and help from my local pharmacist
Failing that and if you can’t get an appointment quickly at your Gps there is the ability now to email your doctor through your surgeries website and they will phone you back or arrange a time you can have a video call
