Consult your doctor: You probably have infected Lymph Nodes behind your ear and needs to be checked as you may need a prescription for Antibiotics.Most of these lymph node swelling go away with antibiotics.But if it persists and there are lymph node swellings in other parts then one has to be tested for other causes Consult your Doctor and get checked
