What Does Pain In Lymph Node Area And Ear Indicate?

I had left ear ache deep inside and my lymph node unilateral pain on left side. I do not have ear pain now, but I still have tenderness and pain in lymphnodes area. This pain comes and goes and have had it on left side for two years now. Can you help me understand what is going on?

Hello,
Enlaregement of lymphnode with pain indicates infection or inflammation in its drainage area. Since it is there for last two years, this requires evaluation by a doctor to know the underlying cause and treatment accordingly.

Thank you
