A member asked:
Hello, i've noticed a lump on the back of my head (ear level) and i suspect a swollen lymph node (it is movable). i also have aphthous on my gums. could this be the cause? (unrelated-i've recently started a chc) thanks?

CHC: No idea what CHC stands for. Lump: See your General Physician to determine the cause, and thus the appropriate treatment. See your General Dentist to determine if intra-oral lesions are truly aphthous ulcers or something else entirely. Your practitioners have spent thousands of hours in training. Take advantage of their expertise.
