Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for consulting healthcare magic
This is Dr. Priyanka tiwari answering your query .
I have read your query and seen the uploaded photo. From what I could observe, this seems like a non-cancerous lump. Don't take so much of stress about it.
Based on details provided I will suggest you to go for Biopsy or Histopathological examination to confirm the diagnosis. In my opinion consult ENT surgeon for surgical removal (if it is non cancerous lump) under anesthesia. Since it is not painful or bleeding, there is no need of analgesic medicine.
Hope I have answered your query and this helps you. If you have further query I will be happy to help.

Brief Answer:
Non cancerous
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Welcome again
Based on details provided it is non cancerous lump, as cancer rapidly grows in size. I will suggest you to go for Fine needle aspiration biopsy or biopsy of lump if you want to confirm the diagnosis. Lumps do not resolve with antibiotics unless they are being caused by bacterial infection.
