Why Have I Developed A Lump Behind Both My Ears That Leads To Pain In Ear And Neck With Slight Fever?

I have about an inch size lump under the back, bottom of my left ear. Its been rapidly growing since I found it 2 days ago. Ive had a headache for 2 days, ear pain, neck pain, and a slight fever. I feel pressure inside my ear.Today I'm noticing a tiny lump inside of my right ear that only hurts when pushed.
