What Does A Lump Under The Left Ear Indicate?
hi i would like to know about a lump which has developed at upper left side under the ear and on the same side at the end of the neck near the shoulder, i have been doing workouts at gym recently and just wandering if this is because of lifting heavy weights?

Hi,
Thanks for the quey. i understand your concern.
The two lumps ( under ear & at the base of neck ) with no lumps any where in body-on left side could be swollen lymph glands , due to infection in Parotid gland, ear, scalp , eye.
Detection of site of infection & it's treatment would resolve the lymph node swelling also.
Please consult your family physician for detailed examination/needful investigations & specific treatment with Antibiotic, anti inflammatory drugs.
to cure the condition.
Thanks
