What Could Be The Reason For Having A Lump Below His Left Ear?
my 5 year old has a lump below his left ear at the end of his hair line - when you touch it lightly it does not hurt - but if you apply a little pressure he says it hurts - we also noticed he has been scratching his head on the center he has a dry scabby spot what does this mean

Hi,
From history it seems that there might be having some infection on scalp giving rise enlarged lymph node in the neck.
There might be having infection on scalp like fungal infection, dermatitis or dandruff.
Consult your doctor and get examined and then go for treatment accordingly.
Give him regular head bath.
Ok and take care.
