4 days ago I noticed a very painful lump
behind my right ear.
It begins two finger widths behind the
lobe, and sits on the bone there behind
the ear. It is very painful and the pain
radiates all over the side of my head.
Over the past few days it has grown in
size and the pain has increased. I've
noticed a change in my hearing as well. I
thought it was an infected gland or
lymphnode... But due to the pain I went
to see my doctor.
They've started me on nova-cloxin and they
scheduled a parotid ultrasound? I thought
the parotid gland was in the cheek? What
could this be if not an infected gland?
How much can an ultrasound really show?
The big "c"?
