What Does Small Lump Under Jaw Indicate?
Noticed today I felt a small lump popping under my jaw on the left side wondering what it is? I recently got over a cold could it be mucus? Or inflamed tissue? It doesn t hurt it s just a nuisance but I m a singer by occupation and I don t want it to ruin my career.
