Suggest Remedy For Frequently Occurring Sore On The Side Of Head

I have had 3 different bouts with a sore (always in the same spot) on the side of my head above my ear, that starts out with pain, swollen Lymp glandes, then oozing liquid, that forms a thick scab. the entire area surrounding the sore can get the size about 2 to 3 inches around. My ear will hurt as well as my neck and the entire area around the sore
