I have a painLESS lump in front of my right ear. It doesn't cause any discomfort and when i visited a GENRAL doctor he said it was nothing to worry about and it would go if u put some kind of ointment(analgesic)...like iodex, bengay, tigerbalm etc........ i told the doctor that the lump does not cause any pain, then why the analgesic? he told me that the analgesic is to make the lump go....... 3 months after the visit the lump is the same....... it does not cause any pain or discomfort...... but it is visible...... since it is not symmetrical(only in front of my right ear) it is more visible.... it feels like a muscle....... anybody experiencing the same problem?? i have been doing a lot of web research in vain.......
