A member asked:
Hard lump under skin on the bone behind my left ear i can't move it what could this be? i have strep and had rash all over body

Possible lymph node: This could be a swollen lymph node, although they are usually mobile. Was it there before your strep? You should see your doctor and ask him/her to check it for you.
