What Could Be The Large Lump On Head And Behind Ear?

I have two lumps behind my left ear. They are painful to the touch, but otherwise, they don t hurt. I assume these are swollen lymph nodes. However, there is also a very large lump or bump to the left of that on my head. It is painful to the touch, similar to those behind my left ear. I have not fallen or hurt or hit my head. Never had anything like it, so I am a bit concerned. Have had all three of them for about three days.
