What Is The Hard Lump Behind My Ear?
I have had a hard lump behind my ear for many years I thought it was a knot in my muscles, but lately my neck has been very stiff and my neck hurts. Could it be a sore muscle or an infected gland. I have had this lump for at least 5 years and it has not changed in size.
