A few months ago in college, I noticed that there was a small bump above my ear that was hurting. Thinking it was a zit or pimple, I applied a warm wash cloth over the span of a couple days. It was swelling less and it didn t hurt, so I thought nothing of it. A few weeks later, I checked and it was still there, but causing no pain. The small bump is still there, above my ear right about where my glasses rest. Should I go see a doctor as soon as possible?
