Discovered a tender small lump on my face above the jawline.got given antibiotics but still didnt go away.could it be cancerous.?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
More info: Visit your original doctor, let the area be measured to see if it has changed. Use warm compresses three to four times a day until you are seen. Consider ultrasound to see if area is cystic or solid and if concerning, should be removed and evaluated, Good luck.
