What Do You Suggest For A Sore Gland Behind My Ear?

I woke up with a sore gland just behind my left ear. On the part that is close to where the arm of your glasses might sit - however mine is a tad lower and about an inch away from where the ear joins the head. I ve taken an antihistimine thinking it might be from allergies, but that s not working.

well, the swelling can be from as allergy or even an insect bite and you dont have to worry if it is not painful or increasing in size.

Take care!!
