Brief Answer:
looks like lymph node
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for the reports.
Picture looks like a lymph node to me.
If not painful and not increasing in size it will settle by itself ( reasons can be any ear nose throat infection or dandruff.....check with your doctor for ruling these infections ).
No precautions required apart from avoiding local injury
If it increases in size it may need further evaluation like FNAC or biopsy.
