What Is The Lump On The Side Of The Face Near The Ear?
I have a knot on the side of my face just in front of my left ear. It has started as a small knot and now is growing larger daily - not painful per se but bothersome now because it is getting rather large. I can see it now when I look for it - no visible sign of a blemish but I can feel around the knot and it seems elongated. Any ideas what it may be?
