How To Cure A Lump Behind The Ear?

My 19 year old daughter has developed a lump behind her ear. Not low like where the gland sometimes swell, but about mid-ear, behind where the bone is. She says it is about dime size and only hurts a little if you push on it. She feels it is recent, as in the last 2 or 3 days.

Hi,
From history it seems that there might be having enlarged post auricular lymph nodes giving this appearance.
It shows that there might be having some infection in external ear orhaving some wax in the ear.
Consult your doctor and get examined.
Ok and take care.
