Bulging Knot Under Chin, Throat Pain, Allergy Prone

Hi, so this morning I have noticed that there is a knot like bulge underneath my chin , and before I go get this checked out i just want to know what it might be. I have very bad allergy problems and at the moment my throat hurts and I am stopped up. But this knot has never happened before or atleast I haven t noticed it.

thanks for query
first of all please let me aware was there itching sensation over that knot???
has it now disappeared spontaneously????
if the ans to the above two qn are yes
then probably it was localised urticaria
u need not to worry
u may take levocetrizine or montelukast
u needs allergy test to be done
u must be aware of one fact that anytime u r feeling choked in throat or feeling suffocation
if this is the case u shoud have to take levocetrizine or allegra or avil or montelukast immediately and rush to the doctors because if laryngeal odema develops in urticaria it may be life threatening
otherwise u need not to be worried about much
