What Is The Lump In The Ear With Numbness In Left Side Of Face And Blurred Vision?

i can feel a small hard lump in front of my right ear, noticed it about 3 weeks ago. my cheek feels slightly numb, though not sure if I am just imagining this as I've never really paid attention to it before, also lips feel tingly. 2 months before this, i was getting a lot of twitching in left side of face, started under eye, seemed to spread down to my cheek and neck, causing a vibration sound in my ear. vision in left eye also goes blurry sometimes, feels thick/ sticky sensation in my eye (had pars planitis/vitreous detachment around 3 yrs ago). possible tmj, have lost 4 or 5 back teeth, severe bruxism.

Hi.
Thanks for your query and an elucidate history.
This looks to more of a neurological problem involving facial nerve and trigeminal nerve.
I would suggest you an MRI of the brain , eyes with special reference to cranial nerves I mentioned.

Neurologist's opinion is very important as he can find more on actual clinical / physical examination.

Lump in front os ear may not be related to any of the problems you have talked about .
