Hi,
from history it seems that there might be having enlarged tender post auricular lymph node giving this problem.
.It indicates that there might be having some active infection in surrounding area like ear, scalp, neck.
Consult your doctor and get examined.
Meanwhile take analgesic medicine like ibuprofen to get temporary relief from pain.
Ok and take care.
