Lymph node under ear

Hi,

I have had a tiny hard reactive lymph node under my ear.  It’s half the size of a pea.  I’ve seen a couple of drs who don’t think it feels cancerous but are watching.  It does seem hard but movable.

My ENT put me on antibiotics and it did fully go away but came back once antibiotics were over.

No one seemed to think it was cancer but the next step would be a biopsie.

Would cancer disappear with antibiotics and return?  

Any help is appreciated!

Thank you!
