What Causes Swelling And Itching Above Ear Lobe?

Why do I keep experiencing itching on the little flap above my ear lobe which swells and eventually leaks clear fluid? My lymph node also swells and becomes hard and very tender to touch. I sometimes experience swelling around the outer part of the ear.

I really appreciate your concern looking to the given history here I could say that this could be fungal infection if I would be your doctor then I would treat this condition with the following medicine 1) Miconazole Oint., and Beclomathasone oint. no need to worry about this, it would come around soon, take care and have a nice day.
