Question

I got hit by a ball in my ear a few days ago, and it's been hurting ever since. I can't hear properly from that ear now. Should I be worried, and what should I do about it?

I'm really worried. I was cleaning my daughter's ears and she moved, causing the tip to go too far in. Her ear started bleeding a little and she cried for a minute, but now she says she can hear fine and has gone back to doing her normal activities. I'm still freaking out. What should I do?

Question

I'm a bit concerned because I've noticed this tiny round lump on the bottom right side of my neck. It's not painful at all, which seems odd to me, but I'm just worried since it showed up suddenly and only on one side. Should I be worried about this? What might it be?
