Lump behind ear

2022-05-27 04:20:43
Hello All, From few days I have acne in my inner ear  reachable through finger tip..I tried to break it but a new dry boil gets created on the same location...I have stopped touching it now.. But there is a small lump kind off behind my ear ...it feels like a bone instead of lump...when I touch it feels pain also when I turn my head feels pain on that part. Can acne cause swollen lumps behind the ear? Any treatment? I have acne inside my ear and this painful lump is behind my ear. Thank you
