What Does A Lump Behind The Ear Indicate?

Hi,
i have a 3 year old girl , we noticed a small lump to the back of her right ear about a couple of days ago since then it is getting smaller and almost gone but tonight she has a high fever of 102. Is this related ? Can is be serious ? What could it be ?

Hi. The lump which is getting smaller almost getting disappeared may not be associated with the fever.
The lump is gone so do not worry about this.
The fever should be investigated by consultation with a Pediatrician and treated.
