Any swelling can be a sign of infection. Check to see if it feels hot, and observe whether it seems to be bothering the cat. If so, you need to see a veterinarian or an animal clinic.

A cat's ear canal is the tube that connects the outer ear to the eardrum. It is where sound waves travel through to reach the middle and inner ear, allowing the cat to hear. The ear canal in cats is relatively long and can be prone to infections or wax buildup.
Cats' ears are protected by hair inside the ear canal that traps dirt and debris, as well as by shape and orientation of the ear flap that helps deflect foreign particles. Additionally, cats have the ability to move their ears independently to help detect potential threats or prey, further safeguarding their delicate ears.

The simplest way, of course, is to scan them with a chip reader. If the chip reader cannot pick up a signal, chances are they have not been microchipped. A less certain indicator is to check inside the cat's ears. Cats quite often will be tattooed inside their ears, so that the vet has a hope of finding the owner of a cat that turns up for treatment. If the cat is chipped, there is no need for an ear tattoo, and often none will be done. However, not all cats are tattooed even if they are not microchipped, and some cats have both an ear tattoo and a microchip.
