Hi,
It can be infective lesion like abscess as well.
But if it is for a long time then mass can be possible.
So I suggest you investigate with FNAC or biopsy to rule out nature of the lesion.
According to cause specific treatment given.
If it is infective lesion then incision and drainage need to be done.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
