A member asked:

Hi there, i a small lump behind my ear - feels like mastoid bone. think two tiny lumps near each other ( not touching). they are both perfectly round. no pain, heat or swelling; grain of rice size -hard like bone. had for min. 10 yrs. no change?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

What you are describing is likely two tiny lymph node gland that were reactive years ago likely for ear or throat infections and now have stayed a little larger and have no tenderness and do not change. This is very common and not a worry. Next time you see your doctor, mention them and be reassured.
