i found one in front of my left ear in the middle of a class, and i just hoped it's nothing dangerous, now thanks to all of you, i realized that its normal. it doesn't pain or irritate, just when i touch it, there's a mild pain like something's crawling under my skin

What was your diagnosis? I have a lump both behind and inn front off my right ear which isn't visible but is painful to the touch. I've been having migraines as well. It's concerning so before i go to the doctor of like yup know what others have discovered.

I have a small lump by my left ear where my jaw bone is also. At times it hurts. I have had it for over a year. It has gotten a bit bigger and its been hurting more and I have been feeling pressure in my ear too and my hearing in that ear isn't to great now either. I had it check 3 times and each doctor said it was a lymphnode. Then I finally got fed up and said " look just run some tests or give me an X-ray or something and make sure thats all it is!" My doctor then had me get an ultrasound done on it. He said it did look like a lymphnode but it was bigger then he liked to see so he referred me to a ear nose and throat doctor who had me get a CT scan of it and we found out that it is NOT a lymphnode! We are not totally sure what it is exactly but he said with where it is at, he wants to remove it before it does any more damage to my ear. He is also concerned because it looks like it is attached to my spit glad and the nerves that go to the left side of my face. I go in January to have it removed. It's about a 2 hour long surgery as long as there are no problems. It's a risky surgery because he said with it being so close to my nerves, I could possibly loose the ability to smile on my left side or even blink! He doesn't think it is cancer but to be on the safe side he thinks it is best to remove it. Once I have it done and we find out what all was going on and what the lump is I will post again. If you have a lump and the doctors keep telling you it's just a lymphnode, please tell them to run some tests to make sure!

problem solved everyone, this condition it called TMJ look it up, it can be caused by ligament issues, or anxiety and stress, you get them when your body sub consciously tenses up and it causes your muscles to knot.. Go see a psychartrist for muscle relaxers and some techniques for dealing with stress

I got thos too the bumps on the side of my head near my ear and they hurt so I put some hydrogen peroxide in the brown bottle followed by some polyspprin with antibiotocs and pain reliever on...every morning and every night. ...it's going away now and the pain has stopped.

I have Rheumatoid arthritis, I'm only 24 but within the last 4 months I've developed debilitating pain on the left side of my jaw to which few things provide relief. I noticed a decent size, maybe a nickel sized lump actually on my TMJ. The only thing that is different is that no one seems to be experiencing long episodes of pain.
