Hello,
Welcome to HCM,
i appreciate your concern.
This may be a external or middle ear infection followed by lymph node swelling in the neck.
You can start taking some analgesic and some antibiotics like amoxycillin+clavulinic acid.
I also shall advise you to consult an ent specialist as early as possible.because proper investigation is necessary too..
Hope this is helpful.
Regards.
