Hello and thank you for asking HCM,
I studied your case and the painful reaction on the back of your ear has probably to do with your glasses. Perhaps your glasses are too small or the material of them has caused allergic reaction. Try not to wear your glasses if it's possible for a couple of days, or wear them just in need (car driving ... ). If the symptoms don't disappear then visit your GP to make a better examination.
I hope this answer was helpful to you.
