Sore Lumps On Right Side Of Neck, Recurring Condition. Chest X-ray, Blood Tests Normal. Causes?

hi, about 8 months ago i had some lumps on my neck on the right side, they were painless so i had blood tests and chest xray which were all normal. the lumps went after a few weeks. one came back about 6-7 weeks ago, its about 1cm, painless, moveable and on the right side of my neck about in the middle, i also cameup with one under my chin but i had a bad cold and throat and it seems to be going now since the cold went. my question is should i be worried about the one on the side of my neck? thanks
