I have a lump behind my ear and it has me really scared because i don't know what it is it where it came from or how it got there can you help?!

Don't worry, lymph: Node. Any tiny laceration on the scalp or the skin may lead to a node here. Are you ill generally? If it continues to bother you go and see your primary care doctor.
