Avatar m tn i have this lump behind my ear for about two years now and it won't go away.
Avatar n tn But just lately my wisom teeth started growing out even more and the lower ones are impacted(epecially the one on the right side) , and I started feeling pressure behind my ears and most mornings when I wake up the lump behind my ear feels extra hard and slightly bigger, but throughout the day it goes down and the pressure goes away.
Avatar n tn They usually last for 5 to ten minutes and then go away. But meanwhile he gets really hyper and acelerated, and his heart rate goes up. What is it???!!! He has been having this for about a month or so.
Avatar m tn A very small lump at the bottom of the testicle which comes and goes as it pleases! Sometimes I can feel a lesser lump in my other testicle in the same area. Obviously you need to check with your doctor however my findings were as follows: The lump was not cancerous and it was not actually on the testicle (which is where the cancer would be). The ultrasound did not show anything untoward or any veins which may have expanded.
Avatar f tn I developed a small hard lump behind my left ear almost 12 years ago. At the time we went to the doctors and they told me it was just a cyst and to come back if it got larger and or painful. Fast forward to now and the lump is now quarter size and is so large it makes my glasses crooked on my face.

Avatar n tn I have recently discovered a very tender lump on the section of skin behind my ear that joins my ear to my neck - its about the size of a pea and extremely tender to touch... assumed it was just a large sore, but its been around 3 or 4 days now and doesn't seem to looking like that.

Avatar n tn I forgot about it until yesterday when I was showering washing behind the ears with soap when I felt two more lumps (that are not painful) behind the ear on the neck area. I am Hypothyroid and last year I was experiencing throbbing in the ear. They ran tests and found I have a very small lump on my thyroid not to be alarmed too small for biopsy. For the past 8 months or so I have been experiencing pain in the ear when I sleep on that side.
1288586 tn?1271904161 but now it has swollen up and hurts a lot on and around the lump and i am having pain in my ear canal also. the lump is a little bigger then a pea. i can't see it, since it's along the bone behind my ear, so my fiance had a look at it and says it's red and looks infected. i also have a lump on the left side of my pelvis, which is also red and sore and my fiance says its starting to go purple.
Avatar f tn About 8 days ago she went to the doctor with strep-throat. Now today I noticed she has a lump behind her right ear, should I be concerned? I read it could just be her body fighting the infection. Should I get her to the doctor or should I just keep an eye on the lump for a few days? She is 8 years old.
Avatar f tn I have just recenty started worrying about this again and before anybody says it is not a lymph node i know what they feel like and also it is right beside my lymph node behind my ear so it isnt. This lump is obviously the reason my lymph node in that region has also been swollen for 4 years.
Avatar n tn He did not need a shunt and has met all of his milestones up to this time. I recently discovered a lump on his scalp behind his left ear. The lump flattens when you press on it and inflates when you let go. It is more of a round shape, almost the size of a dime. It has no color that I can see. It lies under his hair. Sometimes the lump goes away temporarily. It is easy to make it reappear by making him laugh or when he cries or is straining in some way. It does not pulsate that I know of.
Avatar m tn Well about 5 years ago maybe more at the age of 9 I found a lump behind my right ear it was movable and was absolutely painless I forgot about it and didn't tell anybody because I was so young.
2058427 tn?1331933650 Yesterday I noticed a lump behind my ear. When I went to show my partner it, the lump had gone. Later it came back again and I noticed the effects it has on me when it again disappeared. It leaves me with a straining feeling in my eye, then tooth ache. Today, the lump has came and went about 7 or 8 times. The pain in the eye and the pain in the tooth the same when it goes. Any clues? I'd take myself to the Doctor... if it would stay long enough!
Avatar n tn I have two things going on: 1. I have a small (dime-size) lump on the right side of my neck. It is even with my ear near the base of my neck. I have had it for approx. 3 years. It is definitely someone in my neck vs. related to my skin as my skin appears normal. It doesn't hurt and it doesn't move. In fact it doesn't bother me at all and I've never really been concerned about it until a friend urged me to get it checked out. 2.
Avatar m tn Hey everyone, I am hoping you can help me figure out what this lump is behind my ear is. Not literally on my ear, but when you feel behind your ear, the bony part. about an inch or 1.5 inches away from my ear there is a painless lump (circular) about the size of a blueberry. It is difficult to tell if it is hard or squishy so I can't really say. All I can say is that it has been there for about a month maybe more. Has not grown is size that ive noticed.
Avatar f tn t hurt to touch but I do get pain from it now and then I also have a pea sized lump behind my left ear. When I eat it goes quite soft and sort of moveable if anybody could help me that would mean a lot. Also I have not been to the doctors for a blood test or anything like that for a long time.
Avatar m tn i found a pea size lump just behind my ear at the corner of my jawbone.. it doesn't move or hurt. does anyone have any ideas of what it could be?
Avatar m tn HI I noticed that my boyfriend has a lump behind his ear, he has had it for some time, sometimes he feels it gets smaller, sometimes he feels it getting larger. I am very scared of what it might be I told him we should go see a doctor. is it something I should be troubled about? Thanks!
Avatar m tn I have a semi-hard lump directly behind my ear resting on the bone right behind my ear. It feels almost like cartilage. It used to be about the size of a pimple, but it just keeps getting larger. I recently checked it and it is about an inch in length now. The lump occasionally itches and seems to just keep growing. It doesn't hurt at all and is slightly movable. Any thoughts on what this might be??? Anyone worried??
