Hello!
Thank you for the query.
This swelling and lump can be an enlarged lymph nodes, benign skin lesion or some inflammation. Its hard to say not being able to see it. But for sure you should have it checked with an ultrasound. In case of enlarged lymph nodes biopsy should be done. If its an inflammation, you teeth, throat and ears should be checked. Antibiotic treatment might be necessary.
Hope this will help.
Regards.
