Answers:
I believe your talking about a lymph node-a rounded body consisting of accumulations of lymphatic tissue-vary in size from a pinhead to an olive- the principal ones of which are in the neck,armpit& groin!.They stop bacteria from entering the blood stream!.When enlarged usually indicates fighting off infection of some sort-normally not painful-May want a Doctor to check this out, you might need an antibiotic!.Hope this gives you some insight but~ask~Your Doctor! OK!! Get Well Soon!Www@Answer-Health@Com

if you have a severe wound or injury, that could have caused it!. usually the body fights back the bacteria from generating, so the body swept all the bacteria it can found and put them in a certain place in our body, so the defence mechanism of our body can just focus on that area!.

it will go in about a week!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Could be what they call a Sebaceous Cyst!. That's just a lump filled with fluid!. It will have to be drained!. Better make an appointment with your Doctor to make sure of what it is, and have it taken care of!. At the moment I forget what you call it, but you could have an ear infection too!. Good luck to you sir!. Don't self treat that one!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
