Swollen lymph node in front of ear?!
Question: Swollen lymph node in front of ear.?
I have what I believe to be a swollen lymph node in front of my ear. It's been tender for a couple days now. About a week ago, I had a really bad cold, but I don't recall noticing the lymph node while I was actually sick. It popped up around the time I was recovering. Could this still be due to the cold.? As far as I can tell, I have no infections anywhere else. Health Question & Answer

If it makes you feel any better, My 13 year old daughter has the exact same symptoms, she had a cold about a week and a half ago and said her ear hurt for about 2 days just a little bit and now this little pea size lump right in front of her ear, came up over about a period of 3 days and was sore to touch. She also has one right under her jaw line that is sore. I think it is due to the cold. I may take her to the doctor in a couple of days if it does not go down.Health Question & Answer
