A member asked:
Do you have lymph nodes on your ear? i know there are nodes on front of it and behind it on your scalp, but are there any on your ear? front or behind
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Lymph nodes: The nodes surrounding your ear are termed pre and post auricular lymph nodes which can enlarge secondary to a variety of conditions. No lymph nodes are located on your ear per say but you do have small lymph ducts that may drain from your ear.
