I posted about these years and years ago and I know another lady on here had the same thing.
Right behind my ears on the bone I have a lump behind the left ear that is always enlarged, bit larger than say smartie size, and behind my right I have 2 pea sized ones close together.
A few times a year they tend to swell up abit, sometimes painful sometimes not, they soon go down. At the moment the left one is enlarged to about the size of a malteser, it doesn't hurt.
I am just curious as to what they are, glands or cysts. I was once told by a training GP that they were probably cysts, my mum told me that the GP when I was younger said they were probably enlarged glands.
I am seeing my GP in a few weeks about something else so I might ask him what they are. Does anyone else get them?
