Ear Lumps: Causes and When to See a Doctor


Question
 what does it mean when you find a lump behind the ear and there is also a small one that has formed in the front of the ear. Does that mean it is your glands or does it mean it may be cancer?

Answer
There is NO way for me to tell you if you have cancer or not.
There are lymph nodes behind your ear and all through out your neck.
They will swell if you are ill or have a cut in that area. They will usually be tender if they are swollen do to illness.
There are so many variables on if it would be cancer etc. that I could not go over here.
If you are concerned you should have a Dr. look at it.
Most likely it is NOT cancer.   Good luck to you.
