Hard immovable lump behind ear on the bone

Hi everyone 

I have been freaking out recently after I found a hard lump (less than 1cm) behind my right ear. The lump is on the bone behind the ear and it feels attached to the bone. There is no pain with it. I have googled it but I guess google makes a big deal out of everything so I am trying to stay off it. 

I have no idea how long the lump has been there for. 

I have an appointment with and ENT specialists in a few days but I just wanted to know if anyone else experienced this. 
 

Many thanks in advance

    Hi. I just wondered if anyone had the results back and was clear? I have just found one too and have also had tittinus on my ear recently. The lump is exactly how you describes. Hard and painless and immovable. It does feel slightly itchy at times. Very grateful of any advice or updates. Thank you xx
