Suggest Remedy For Painful Lymph Node Behind The Ear
Hi, for the past 3 mornings I have had a lymph gland behind my right ear become painful during sleep at night. When the day goes on the pain subsides until the next morning when it hurts again. I don t think the gland itself feels like it is bigger but the area around it seems to swell up. I recently had a boil get infected, I had to have it landed and went on antibiotics for it. Now there is a scar where the boil was, but no pain anymore. Could they be related?
