I’m so worried and can’t stop thinking about this.
I have got a few things going on in my neck and ears and I’m convincing myself that I’ve got cancer.
Both of my ears are very blocked and full of wax. It’s been like this for a while now. I sometimes get pain and itchiness in my ears too.
I have a swollen lymph node behind my right ear. The lymph node is painless, and big enough to be able to see under the skin.
I also have a fullness feeling in my neck on the right hand side, so same side as where the lymph node is behind my ear. If I feel my neck on the right hand side, I’m sure I can feel a lump/lymph mode on the right hand side towards the front of my neck. This is also painless.
I’ve now ended up convincing myself that I’ve got tonsil cancer/ lymphoma and that it’s spreading. Or could it be related to the problems I am having with my ears? I saw ENT yesterday about my ears and mentioned about the lump in my neck and the lymph node behind my ear, and the doctor wasn’t concerned about anything. Does this mean I shouldn’t be concerned and settle for it just being to do with my blocked ears, or should I push for a scan?
