I'm not sure what: you are referring to. Immediately posterior to the condyle of the mandible is the post glenoid process(tubercle), a vary small prominence that comprises the posterior wall of the fossa of the TMJ joint. Posterior to that is the external auditory canal of the ear, and posterior to that is the mastoid process. You are undoubtedly feeling a normal part of your skull, difficult to tell exactly what
