My son said someone gave him ice and he called to come home right away. he had a lump but no wound. he took aleve. He has been swimming a lot. He has been complaining about ear pain, no fever. after 2 days of complaining of ear pain he went to urgent care where they looked at him and seen nothing in his ears, no redness.
