Need Medication For Bump Behind The Ear Due To An Injury
I hit the back of my left ear getting into my truck yesterday with the truck door. There s a big bump on the back of my ear now and it s slightly sore to the touch. It s increasing in size as yesterday is was a small bump. Should I go to the dr to get it checked?

thanks for your query,
i have gone through your question, the swelling could be because of the impact (inflammatory) or the swelling could be because of the fractured bone also..you can take analgesic with anti inflammatory drug like tablet Enzoflam twice daily for 5 days...consult a dental surgeon to take radiographs for proper diagnosis and management...
i hope my answer will help you,
take care..
