Hi ! The lump could be a infected lymph node the infection being either from your ear or from your teeth. I would suggest you to get yourself examined by your family physician who may advise you for some antibiotic, anti inflammatory drugs. He may also advise you for an x ray of the skull if need be. WIshing you an early recovery.
