It's possible that those lumps are little cysts that occur for some people when they get their ears pierced. They are hard, skin-colored bumps that pop up above the skin and essentially don't go away. They might also be cysts that stay inside, and you can just feel the by pressing your fingers softly against that part of the ear.

In both of those cases, it's ok and there's n ot much to do; they may go away and they may not.

If they are lumps filled with pus, it is definitely an infection. You should probably take out the earring and keep the area very clean until the infection goes down. You may even want to visit a doctor to make sure it's not more serious.
