Brief Answer:
It can be a swollen lymph node.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for the query.
It can be a swollen lymph node and it is quite common when there is upper respiratory tract infection as in your case.
Nothing much to worry and it will disappear once the infection settles.
As of now continue your pills and wait for few more days.
Thanks
