I have a hard lump inside my left ear just below the helix, if I run my finger down from the top of my ear it is just below the top curve of my ear, if I pinch in that area there is a hard bump inside the skin, is this common, I just noticed it last week, it has not gotten any bigger and moves around between my fingers.
Hi Dear, Welcome to Chat Doctor. Understanding your concern. As per your query you have lump inside your ear. Well there can be many reasons for lump in ear like infection also known as Otis external, cyst, swollen lymph node or hematoma from minor injury. I would suggest you to consult ENT specialist. Doctor will examine with horoscope and order test like CT scan, MRI or x-ray to confirm diagnosis and rule out other causes. Doctor may prescribe antibiotics (amoxicillin) for at least 10 days, remove with the help of suction device or remove it surgically. For now keep your ear Chat Doctor.
