Two small bumps behind ear...any ideas?

Question

A week or so ago I noticed two very small bumps behind my right ear that I’m sure weren’t there before. I know you can get swollen glands so forgot all about them but noticed they’re still there today and that side of my neck/face feels ever so slightly tender. I’ve had a cut on my head I’m due to see the dr about so wondered if that could have set it off? Also had a bit of a throat problem because of my asthma inhalers I take but I thought that had cleared up. I generally just feel a bit achey but not sure if that’s from lugging my 1 year old around aha
Stupidly googled my symptoms and now I’m stressing it could be something more serious. Anyone had anything similar that took a few weeks or antibiotics to go away??
Thanks

Answer

Could be lymph nodes. My son has 2 small bumps on the back of his ears. Doctor says lymph nodes swell before during or even after getting sick. He also has asthma so it could be triggered by it. 🤷🏻‍♀️ best way to find out is if you go to your doctor.

Answer

Definitely sounds like your body is fighting something, and yes you can get swollen lymph glands from a cut. Bring it up to your doctor he will probs put you in antibiotics, but the infection could also be viral... in either case it’s probably nothing serious.

My mom, brother and me get small bumps behind our ears. In our case they are just pimples. 🤷‍♀️ They don't seem like it but eventually I can pop it or leave it and it goes away. Just takes a long time.
