    Hard lump behind my right ear
    I have had the very hard lump behind my ear towards my jaw line I have had it for quite some time now... I have talked to my doctor when I first noticed it and he had said it was nothing just to keep an eye on it. Yesterday I noticed that it seems to have gotten a little bigger. It really scares me especially knowing that a hard lump is not a good sign. Does anyone know what it might be and what I should do?

    It's a CYST. And you should go to a dermatologist to take a look at it. They will cut it out and it will be gone, don't wait like I did. Mine was in my left ear lobe, probably caused from ear piercings when younger. Mine got as big as a large marble. If you have insurance they'll take care of it, otherwise expect to pay $300 bucks out of pocket. It doesn't hurt with anesthesia. I asked them if they could put the rancid clay that came out... in a jar,. so I could show my friends. I've seen homeless people with cysts the size of golfballs. Don't WAIT!! Or procrastinate
