Yes: But at your age, one would consider mono or CMV as potential causes as well. You need blood tests to rule out a hematologic disorder as well. Consult a hematologist if your doctor can't provide you with an answer since the problem has gone on long enough.

Hard nickel sized lump under left ear. 2 months. Getting harder and harder. ENT got CT scan done. Said no abnormalities/no swollen lymph nodes. If I lift my head or open jaw wide it sometimes get "stuck" and squishes out from under jaw. Scary.
