I am 17 years old, female. I have a lump near my ear, small only and painless but it's there since long, when I google it, it says it's a swollen lymph node. Apart from that my ear tickles quite often, especially when I sneeze but there's no pain. What should I do?

I am sorry to hear about your concern but will be happy to assist you. Lumps behind the ear can have many possible causes, including problems in the skin or bone. Swollen lymph nodes, infections, and certain cancers can also lead to lumps. Most cases of a lump behind the ear do not present a cause for concern, however, and normally resolve without treatment. Let's connect over a call so that we can discuss your concern in details and make a suitable treatment plan for you.

your can be because of ear infection. Nothing to worry. It will resolve on its own. Do saline gargles daily.
