Hi,
From history it seems that you might be having tonsillitis and pharyngitis giving rise enlarged tender lymph nodes in the neck and post auricular region.
You might require one course of antibiotic like Azithromicin medicine for 5 days.
Do salt water and anti septic gargles.
Avoid cold drinks, fried and junk food.
Ok and take care.
