I remember a few months ago I feared the same thing. Under my ear lobes like between the jaw and neck I had things that felt hard, but I stressed the fear of lymphoma to the doctor and they felt and said no way and explained that it generally occurs under the arm pit and around collar bone, which both were fine when they checked.

Go to a doctor, I don't say that because I think something is wrong. But let a medical professional take a look and they will be able to put your mind at rest :)

Do you guys think it could be from my cartilage piercings, I had them for several years now but sometimes they get sour and stuff

Yes that can happen. My daughter has that from her piercings.

Not being funny, but this isn't a question for this forum.

It's clearly a physical issue - therefore go get it seen to by docs.
