I have a small lump just at the back of my right ear, a little bit above the base of the ear. It started yesterday. It's painful only if I put pressure on it. Otherwise, I wouldn't even know it's there. I also have been experiencing some headaches especially if I move my eyes abruptly to the left or to the right. What could this be?:confused:

Very hard to say, but I would see my doctor. Most likely it is actually just a spot... but better safe than sorry.

I get those sometimes, and they are similar to a pimple that is under the skin. It should go away after a few days, but if not then have your Dr check it out. If it is just a pimple-thing then the dr can lance it and make it go away sooner. I had one just a few days ago to be exact ;) Also (from experience) don't try to "pop" it, it will just become extremely sore and look like a big ugly pimple. LEAVE IT ALONE, just keep an eye on it.

Hi guys. Thanks for all your response. I do appreciate them.
There was actually a lymph node that was swelling because my body was fighting some infection. Thereby causing the lump. It turns out that a few days after, I got the chicken pox, that is, it's the infection that my body was fighting!

Is having a lump at the back of the ear has something to do with lungs?

I have it to its really scary
