What Does A Swollen Lymph Node Below The Right Ear Indicate?
Yes I have a swollen gland directly below my right ear . I have had this before with severe itching behind the ear. The swelling is large and this comes and goes in the same spot . Swelling varies. What is this and which compress is best hot or cold?

Hi,
Swollen lymph nodes may be due to infection of ear or from the scalp or viral fevers, etc. Since when you're having this swollen lymph nodes?? Use tablet Amoxiclav twice a day for five days. Also consult your with your ENT specialist and get examined for oral cavity and focus for infection or other sites for swollen lymph nodes.
Please consult your doctor he will examine and treat you accordingly.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
