What Causes Lumps Below The Ear Lobes?

I have an allergic reaction, twice a few years ago, which is painful followed by puffy and very swollen areas above and below the eye. Sometimes it includes the entire lower face. I ve tried to isolate anything I ve been exposed to to no avail. This morning I noticed hard but painless lumps just forward of my ear lobes and at the jaw bone. I may have had them before but hadn t noticed. I had strep a month ago and was treated with antibiotics but still have a hoarse voice. Thoughts? and thanks for your consideration.
