What Causes Painless Lumps Under The Laryngeal Prominence And Behind The Ear?
I have a hard round painless lump about the same size as my "adams apple", a couple of centimeters underneath it. I have no idea if this is normal or not. I also have a hard lump at the top of my neck behind my ear, it has been there for over a year, it doesnt hurt. Any info would be helpful

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
The lump under laryngeal prominence seems to be pre or paratracheal lymph node or else. The lump on top of neck behind ear is postauricular lymph node from various possible reasons. I would like to recommend a prescription of a high resolution ultrasound examination of both regions.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel
