I have a hard and painful bump behind my ear. Should I be concerned and go see a doctor?

It is always best to err on the side of caution when it comes to any sudden or concerning health symptoms. Given the description of your bump being hard, painful to touch, and affecting your hearing, it would be wise to consult a doctor as soon as possible. Keep an eye on any changes in the bump, such as redness, itching, discharge, growth, or if it persists. These could be signs of a more serious issue that may require medical attention.
