when doing my hair this morning i felt a round lump right under & behind my left ear. It's not a spot its a lump. feeling totally panicked.
The only thing that i can think is that my wisdom tooth on bottom left is currently partially erupting & ive had pain from that the past couple of weeks - could it be related?

If it’s rugby ball shaped and squishy I’d guess a lymph node.

I get lumps behind my ears if I’m run down or have an infection of some kind. Probably a lymph node and related to your wisdom teeth.

I also have a lump under my ear. It sort of comes from under my ear when I open my jaw if that makes sense? I had my upper right wisdom tooth extracted a month ago and started getting mild ear ache and then noticed the lump ( probably pea/marble sized) it’s slightly tender and moves a little) did you find out what it was ?
i suffer health anxiety so that really doesn’t help at all !!
