A member asked:

The swelling within my upper left eye lid has been increasing for the past 4 days. i also have a small mass at the end of my jaw bone beneath my l ear?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Doctor can evaluate: Such symptoms may reflect an infection in the eye area, with germs flowing to the pre-auricular lymph node, which is a lymph node under the skin next to the ear. One's primary care doctor can evaluate to see if medication is needed.
