How Can A Bump Behind The Ear Be Treated?

I have a bump behind left ear, I went to the doc due to a sinus infection, and was told it was a swollen lymph node. It has now been there almost 2 months, it does not hurt , but does not seem to be going away either. I have been having moments of dizziness, when I move my head too quickly, almost like vertigo. What is this, is it normal? When should I worry? What can I do to speed up the healing process?

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi,
Thanks for asking I have read & understood your problem.
The lymph node behind your ear is body reaction to some sort of ear involvement ( as per your symptoms suggest) following sinusitis.
You need a detailed examination by ENT surgeon & get advised treatment to control the ear problem & also the vertigo like symptoms.
Thanks.
