Baby almost 5 mos has goopy left eye i think clogged tear duct but also congested and has lump behind left ear on head. lymph node? thoughts?

Appt time: The baby can have bacterial conjunctivitis, to nasolacrimal obstruction, viral infection--he/she really needs to be seen. As far as lymph nodes the one near the ear is located inferior to the ear not behind it.
