I have a question regarding an established piercing. I have had both of my earlobes pierced for about four months now. About two weeks ago, my right earlobe started acting up. There was a bump near the piercing, it felt like ther was a knot where the bump was, but it was not hot or discharging. Then about a week later, the left one started in with the same problem. Both of my lobes are better (sea salts). Just recently, about two weeks ago, I started taking up a new task at work. It requires me to put a headset on my head and take customer’s orders. Other people use this headset as well. What I am wondering is if there is a link between this new task and the piercings acting up.

If the head set is putting pressure on the jewelry, then yes that could be the culprit. Just pay attention to how you are putting the head set on, and how it hits the piercing.
