Hello Sylvia:
I have had a similar lump-like thing below my right ear, which the right tonsil was where my cancer was, and my RO and ENT felt it and didn't think it was anything to worry about, just some swelling. It stayed quite a while and then went away, so not sure what it was, but hopefully yours will be nothing. I'll pray for you, and know how worried you are because that's what we all do, especially if something new pops up. Good Luck, and let us hear from you.
