What Causes Lump Behind The Ear With Stiffed Neck?

I have a hard lump behind my left ear, on the base of the left side of my head and a stiff neck. The lumps feel like like a bruise to touch. My shoulders are sore and I am having headaches and am tired.I have been around kids who have colds recently and I have had Glandular fever early last year. I also have bad calf muscle cramps at night

You need a examination by a physician .
It could be lymph node swelling. You may need a USG neck, fnac of the swelling and blood test investigation. Based on the reports they will put you on antibiotics.
