What Causes Sensitive Lump Under Skin Above Ears?
Hello, I m a 20 year old female in decent shape. A few days ago I noticed a very sensitive lump under my skin where the top of my left ear connects near my temple. It hasn t gone down in size and is still quite sensitive. Is this anything to be concerned about? It s about the size of a pea. Thank you!

Hi, dear. I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
You may have some sebaceous cyst or dermoid cyst. Its quite common in that area. No need to big worry. You should go for excision biopsy of that lump.
Consult your doctor and take treatment accordingly.
Thanks for using health care magic.
Wish you a very good health.
