What Causes A Small Lump Behind The Left Ear?

Ok so i ve had this small lump behind my left ear for a couple of months, maybe even longer than that and it won t go away. When i asked someone they said it just might be my glands or something like that. And others said lumps behind the ear in the middle on the bone part just happens and goes away in time but it is still worrying me to death, it isn t painful at all though just bothering when i touch it. Hopefully it is nothing serious at all

Hi,
From history it seems that you might be having non specific lymphadenitis in that area.
It shows that there might be having some minor infection in near by area.
If there is no pain or increase in size, nothing to worry.
Ok and take care.
