Suggest Treatment For Lumps On Neck

Hello please help my 8 year old son has a lump on the right side of his neck. I noticed it a few months ago. It almost reminds me of a broken vein. In the shape of a swooshy soft ball. I can kind of move it. Unlike a boil. I am very concerened. What can it be? About a year ago before the lump was noticed. His doctor thought she heard a heart murmur. After a test was done she ruled that out. I am going to try to get him seen asap. We have moved and I hope the new doctor will see him and find answers right away. Di you have any advice... please help.
