hello, i had a gland behind my ear when i was little and sometimes it would get swollen. it would effect the way i ate and how wide i could open my mouth. but i grew out of it. but maybe you just have a gland behind your ears. go to the doctor and get it checked out
Hi
Welcome to the MedHelp forum!
A lump behind the ear that swells and then goes down is generally a lymph node. You may be well but this swells in response to a local infection or even dandruff in hair. It can also be a cyst. Both are harmless conditions. However, show this to a doctor once.
Hope this helps. Take care!
