Lump under Jaw

[star-91]

Hi guys,
I'm just looking for some advice or maybe anyone who has/has had a similar problem.
Well I have a lump on the right hand side just at the bend of my jaw. Its slightly larger than a pea. Its hard and it moves. Its been there about four years. Recently ive started getting quite bad ear aches nearly every other day only in my right ear. And every single morning when i get out of bed if I puff my right cheek out there is a squelching sound and a horrible feeling in that ear like something moving, sometimes it feels like it needs to pop but yawning doesnt do it. Sometimes when I press in the hollow directly under my right ear its very painful and tender.
Im stressing out and its making me quite worried.
Any advice would be appriciated.
Thanks.

It is probably a swollen lymph node.

You could also have sinus problems.

Have you seen a doc about this?

Hiya

I had a lump exactly like that and I went to the Dr who told me it was a lymph node and was nothing to worry about unless it started to get bigger.

I use to worry about it so much though no matter how much people told me it was fine but since seeing the Dr I dont even think about it anymore!
