I had a small fever and chills situation on Monday night that went away Tuesday afternoon, a lump behind my right ear formed tuesday night, a sore throat on Wednesday, and no sore throat but loss of voice yesterday. It is now Friday morning and the lump is still here and my voice is still gone and my sore throat came back. I'm not entirely scared because I think I need to do the salt water gargling one. That is also a way to help voice loss and it has the fever symptom. Correct?

The most common causes of lumps behind ear are Acne, Lymphadenopathy, Infection, Lipoma, Cysts, Sebaceous cysts, Mastoiditis, Tumor. Treating the Lump Behind Ear Lipomas cannot be treated and will simply go away on their own, but all of the other causes of ear lumps have different remedies available. Some are even possible to do at home. Mastoiditis: The cause of the lump is an underlying ear infection. Create a strained mixture of olive oil and garlic oil and place one to two drops into the infected ear. Lymphadenopathy: The swollen node is in your neck. Gargling turmeric or salt water can help alleviate the symptoms. Cyst and abscess: Do not “pop” a cyst or abscess. Instead, a warm compress can help drain the fluid and offer some relief from any discomfort or pain. A cyst can sometimes be treated using tea tree oil as well. Soak a cotton swab in tea tree oil and hold it to the cyst for about five minutes, then wash with an oil-free soap. This will help dry up the fluid inside the cyst and help relieve any swelling. Home remedies: Home remedies are best used for only short periods. If your symptoms persist, especially without any relief, the matter is best brought to a doctor’s attention. http://www.doctorshealthpress.com/skin-care-articles/treating-lump-behind-ear

When to See a Doctor for a lump behind the ear? A lump behind the ear is not an immediate cause for alarm and you don’t need to rush to the emergency room. However, it is best to seek a medical professional if any of the following happens: The lump is causing pain or discomfort. You experience difficulty or pain when trying to move your neck or head. You have difficulty swallowing. The tender area appears to be spreading or growing. A cyst becomes inflamed, starts leaking pus, or ruptures on its own. The lump does not go away after several days or weeks, even if it is painless. Any accompanying symptoms do not seem to be lessening over time or are getting worse.

I have a lump behind my right ear. It's tender to touch and is hard. I only noticed it last night and since then it's been a huge pain in the butt. The last couple days I have had a on-and-off blocked nose and sore throat. Also I have been sneezing like crazy today. I'm kind of scared as I don't know what it is and I don't want it to get any worse. The sore throat, blocked nose and sneezing could just be a common cold but do colds cause lumps?
