IA few days ago I had a tender little painful to touch area on neck area behind left lower ear lobe, it has been spreading and now is bothersome without touching, but when I lightly touch it hurts and feels in one spot worse and like it is a bulging vessel? Is this something that could be serious

So when you have sore throat Chat Doctor.  Treatment is to treat the cause and lymph node swelling will reduce. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
