I am 43 don't have a problem with spots, have fairly dry skin and have recently had a persistent cough ( 3 to 4 weeks) I am also 11 weeks pregnant ...

If what you mean by lump is a peanut like thing under your skin with pain which came along with fever throat pain n cough, it a an infection
You can use antibiotics
It will disappear
But if you have any history of TB in you or ur family or neighborhood better to consult, do the tests soon
At least within a month
Hope u have no tooth decay or lice on head....
