Anyone experienced this?

Just wondering if anyone else's little ones has had this?
His ear was absolutely fine yesterday, no cuts or scratches at all. In the evening, I noticed a very small clear circle patch at the top of his earlobe.
(I genuinely thought he had been given a lollypop, and he had rubbed it on his ear if that makes sense πŸ˜…).
Today, it had very quickly turned very moist, weeping and has become bigger.. it was also crusty before I had cleaned it.
It looks like his skin is like peeling away or being eaten into 🀒.
I've seen a doctor at the pharmacy and she thinks it's a bacterial infection, but I can't see a gp until Monday.
Has anyone experienced this before?
What was the outcome?
Any idea how it's caused? πŸ˜…πŸ™ˆ
Thank you in advance ☺️

That looks like my ear after I burn them with straighteners πŸ˜‚ (I’m very clumsy) I’d keep it clean (cooled boiling water) and get it checked by the doctor x
