No need to worry. Idiopathic lymph nodes may happen in children. Just observe if the lymph node changes in size or becomes tender or warm to touch.
Next Steps
it can be further investigated by some simple blood investigations, for which you can consult a pediatrician.
Health Tips
Don't press it or fiddle with it. most of these resolve on their own in due time. An ear examination should be conducted.
