Hi, Dear,Good Morning. Thanks for the query to my Chat Doctor Clinic. You have 2 issues in this query.a-One-for itchy bump above rt. eyebrow, but you skipped to b-another lump below your rt ear. I feel concerned about them. Itchy one will Resolve with Tb-antihistaminic and Tb NSAIDs, as its mostly-a boil /and or a hive. The one below rt ear being painful-is mostly due to the boil below the rt.ear/as its sudden lump -duration untold by you/ but possibility of Parotid adenoid needs to be ruled out if its long-standing.From your history and In My opinion -its simple infected boil -as your doctor has told you to wait, so that it would be ripe enough to be Chat Doctor. If still You are worried, I would advise you to consult ER Surgeon, who would treat it with Antibiotics and Tb NSAIDs and if need be with-Incision and
