Sounds like: a lymph node that became enlarged because of an infection in your ear or jaw. You might need to be on antibiotics, so get to a doctor for proper diagnosis and treatment.

Lymph node?: The bump you are feeling may be a lymph node doing it's job, acting as a trap for infection. Most probable cause of your symptoms may be ear, jaw, tooth, or gum infection. See your Dentist or Physician to start the differential diagnostic process.
