What could a hard pea-sized lump under the left ear lobe be that has been there for 2 months?

In: Head Ears and Nose [Edit categories]

Answer:

Answer

This is sometimes a sign of infection in your body. Or, depending on the size and the shape of the lump, it could be something more serious. You need to go to a doctor. In person. No one is able to (or will) diagnose you online, whether they have medical training or not. You only have one body. Don't chance something serious on the response of strangers online. Please contact a health professional immediately.
