Avatar n tn Hello. I get a lump on my earlobe every now and them. They grow to about 1 cm in diameter and are usually not painful or itchy. They go away spontaneously after a couple weeks. However, I got another lump, and this time, it extended down a little below the earlobe. I lanced it and tried to squeeze it, but I couldn't get anything to come out.

Now I my earlobe does not have a hard lump but i feel a soft squichy texture,my ear is a bit inflamated and a bit painful when it is touched. What could this be ?WHat Should i Do? Is there any home remedies?
Avatar n tn I'm a 24 year old female-A couple of months ago I woke up with a painful pea to marble sized lump under the skin on my ear. It is located right where my ear connects to my head, on the bottom. Like if I were to pull my earlobe away from my head, it is in that "flap" of skin. Because it was painful and hard, I assumed it was a boil as I have had these in the past.
Avatar f tn As of today, the pain and swelling has gone down somewhat. It feels like a firm lump right where my earlobe connects with my head and the skin on and around it has become very scaly and itchy. I'd love some insight as to what this could be and whether it's worth making a doctor's appointment for. Thank you!
Avatar f tn Yeah, I don't think that's it because I don't have any other symptoms and also with Lyme disease it is a purplish lump and what I have isn't a lump at all - it is completely flat. Thanks though.
Avatar n tn It sounds like your lymphnodes may be swollen and anything can cause that. Allergies (this always happens to me) water in the ear, infection anywhere in the body, big or small. Someone asked the same question for their daughter on another form (strangly using the exact same words as you did). You can go here. http://www.medhelp.
459111 tn?1250038308 Hi, My husband is 42 yrs old, and 2 weeks ago noticed a FIRM (not rock hard) oval lump around 1.3cm by1.8cm behind his left ear. It's a hard place to explain,It is right in that soft spot directly under the earlobe, right up in the soft bit where the crease is right up near ear cartilage. Went to Doctors he said its not the paritod gland and he said alhough its firm, it moves slightly he said it was a cyst, he said its smooth and oval .
Avatar n tn Hmm this isn't a pimple...it's inside the earlobe, there is no lump on the outside of it, from just looking at it you wouldn't see it, a pimple is usually at the surface of the skin yes? this isn't...
Avatar n tn I remember checking the condom for signs of breakage, and I am sure that it did not break. About a week ago, I noticed a somewhat painful lump under my left armpit. It was tender and slightly painful to the touch, and was about the size of a pea. Throughout the course of last week until today, two more similar lumps developed under my left armpit area. In addition, I discovered today a small, but not painful, lump on the neck, about an inch below my right earlobe.
Avatar n tn Every once in a while, my ear will become red, warm and very itchy for about a day. Afterwards, a small hardened area usually on the bottom of the earlobe will appear that is itchy (but significantly less) to the touch. It is somewhat sensitive and seems to go away after awhile, maybe a week or so. This happens every several months. I have my ears pierced, and will get a small infection every so often. Any ideas?
Avatar m tn Now I have noticed a small pea sized lump on my jaw just in front of my earlobe. It is hard and semimoveable when i do move it it makes my eye twitch or sends a shock to my ear. is it possible that is what is causing my pain as I have this lump on both sides of my face. Thanks.
Avatar f tn i dont mean to scare you but my uncle had a growth in the same place. he was quickly diagnosed with cancer and passed away a couple weeks ago. theres no reason to think this is the same thing but i would definitely get it checked as soon as possible.
Avatar n tn Episodes may be triggered with simple actions like chewing or drinking, coughing, sneezing and even turning the neck rapidly in a single direction” or touching an earlobe. The cause is unknown but may be associated with migraine headaches, joint dysfunction, and prolonged periods of stress or anxiety. One study suggests it is related to activation of the trigeminal-autonomic reflex. If it persists, have this evaluated further by a neurologist. Take care and do keep us posted.
Avatar f tn Just today as I took a shower and washed my body, I noticed/felt a hard small lump on the right side of my labia minora. It is about the size of a BB pallet, slightly smaller than a pea. And it feels like is inside of the skin, not on it.Also, unless I push it from the inside out, you can't really see a "white head", but when I do push it slightly a light white-ish coloration seems to be on the outer end of it.
Avatar n tn Hi, I just joined so I'm not sure if I am going to word this right.. But over the last 4 days I have had a pain in the right side of my jaw. It's painful to yawn and to fully open my mouth. There is now a small bump located directly under my ear, behind my earlobe on my neck inbetween my jaw line and the large muscle on the right side of my neck, that little soft spot or pocket inbetween the skull and jaw....
Avatar n tn and the lump is still behind my ear and im restless im afraid it will infect my inner ear although the lump is behind my outer earlobe. im afraid the puss might move in to my inner ear and start infecting.... i wanted to poke with needle but im thinkin twice. should i still poke it or i let it be it still looks big but not as big as it was...whenever i try to squeeze it seems to run in my skin and i cant feel much of it....
Avatar f tn A little over 2 months ago I noticed that I had a bump directly below my left earlobe. I assume its a lymph node. However, It has remained swollen and is often bigger in the morning when I wake up. I also have been getting headaches often, and only on one side of my head, the same side and the swollen lymph node. I went to the doctor and she suggested I get and ultrasound of it. What is she looking for in the ultrasound? Are my headaches related to the lymph node?
Avatar n tn Today i noticed that my ear was sore, and found a lump in my earlobe, it hurts when i touch it and appears to be turning a bit purple, i also noticed the lymph node on my throat is swollen.. any ideas as to what it may be?
Avatar m tn About a month ago I got a lump on the back of my earlobe. It grew bigger and bigger and after using the internet I found out it was a cyst (I think). It gradually grew smaller then after a week or two it grew bigger again. A couple minutes ago I was looking at it and realised there was a small spot that was dark red and so popped it. A lot of blood and pus came out and so I squeezed it all out but I found that there was a small clear tendon that was inside the cyst.
Avatar f tn Then the earlobe goes back to flat or to small BBs. In fact, my right earlobe was the recent case and feeling it I can still feel something larger than a BB, but it seem to be stable. I looked on the web for information on something descriptive of my condition (don't recall the "string" at the moment) and it come up with pimple as one possibility. I don't recall ever discussing this with my doctor nor can I say I have ever seen any "spot" showing through.
