Had lesion surgically removed a year ago with clean margins and about 6 months ago area started with a lot of pain and continuing with occasional pain in my ear same side as lesion. An stiffness in my neck Go back to ENT every 3 months but doesn’t feel it necessary to biopsy. Going for cat scan of my neck next week. Worried and thinking I should insist on a biopsy again. ?? Any comments would be greatly appreciated. I am 66 non smoker and drink socially.
