Suggest Treatment For Tender Lump By My Left Tragis

I have a tender lump by my left Tragis that just developed a couple of days ago(2) . The bump is small but tge irritable tenderness travels to my upper jaw just below my ear lobe. Idk what s going considering I haven t done anything, its rather small, but its worrisome. Idk what could have caused it. I went to the doctor like 2 weeks ago for a Check up and everything was fine.

Since the history is only for 2 days it is more likely to be a boil.. In medical term we calling it as furuncle..just take a course of antibiotic (Amoxyclav 625 mg twice daily) for 5 days along with pain killers.. It should subside.. Hope I answered your question.. Have a good day..
