Hello,
We have to rule out possible causes like cellulitis or local inflammation. As first line management, you can apply ice packs for symptomatic relief.
If symptoms persist you can consult an ENT specialist and get evaluated.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
