What Does A Lump Behind The Ear Indicate?

Hi, my three year old daughter had a pea sized softish lump behind her ear a while ago and I have recently noticed a similar lump on the back of her neck this weekend. She also has little nose bleeds from time to time too...I have a apt at docs in two weeks but am concerned...should I seek earlier apt?!
Many thanks

Pediatrician 's  Response
This can be lymph node enlargement associated with ear and nose infection. Does the child have recurrent rhinitis? It may lead to epistaxis.If epistaxis is significant then you should visit a pediatrician earlier.
