What Causes Lump Near Jawline And Ear Lobe Along With Numb Face?
I feel a lump by my jawline and ear lobe, parts of my face feel numb sometimes. You can't really feel it until I turn my head to the opposite side.
It doesn't seem to bother me and I am not sure how long it's been there. I noticed it a couple of weeks ago. Although about 1-2 months ago I woke up with extreme neck pain like I had a pinched nerve. I have a feeling it's related to the lump.

Welcome to health care magic.
1.The most possible cause could be submandibular cystic dilatation - sialadenitis.
2.Other possible causes could be submandibular gland lesions, bony cystic lesions.
3.Finally lymph nodal enlargement. To conclude the diagnosis - primarily ultrasound examination will help to evaluate.
4.Ultrasound will help to evaluate the nature of the lesion, its source and extensions.
5.So i would suggest to request for a ultrasound scan and further depends on the scan result.
Good luck.
Hope i have answered your query,
any thing to ask ? do not hesitate to ask.
