Swelling behind ear

Hi,

So I woke up this morning to a swollen area behind my right ear. It feels so weird and does freak me out slightly.

I am recovering from covid so logic tells me it's down to that. But my friend recently had blood cancer and his first symptom was a lump on his neck. So now I have to admit I am feeling worried.

  • Hello Smerter

    I'm sorry to hear that you've recently had covid and that you've now discovered a swollen area behind your ear. 

    The two may very well be linked but if things don't improve then it would be advisable to chat things through with your GP. 

    I hope you're feeling better soon. 

    Best wishes,
