Thread: Lump in ear canal?

    Lump in ear canal?

    For the last 8 weeks I have had ear pain in one ear that has flared up intermittently. After three weeks I went to the doctor and she said it looked like otitis externa and could see a swelling in the ear canal so gave me some antibiotics and drops. Neither worked. I went back last Tuesday and she gave me a stronger dose of antibiotics and said the swelling was still there. If the swelling was a abscess wouldn't it have burst by now?? Anyone had similar??? That side of my face also looks a little swollen. Thank you

    It's a cyst apparently - waiting to see another doctor but he is away on holiday :(
