Identical lumps near ear
I've recently noticed 2 small identical lumps near both of my ears (in almost identical places). The lumps are small, under the skin, and on pressing it feels like there's a little ball inside. Both lumps are not painful as such on pressing. Should I be concerned and what speciality of doctor should I consult??

You most probably have a dandruff problem in your scalp which causes postauricular ( level 5)lymph glands to flare up. consult a good dermatologist to treat your scalp infection.
