Hello,

You can upload a photo of the bump on reports in order to give you a better opinion about it. I think it can be a lymph node on the neck showing an infection of the teeth or ear.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr. Olgeta Xhufka
