Could The Lump Be Due To Sun Burn?

Hi, my family and I were at the beach and it was a really hot day. My 12 year old daughter got burnt in her face and on her shoulders. I noticed this morning there's a big lump on her left shoulder in the area that got burnt. She's also complaining of pain. Could the lump be sunburn related and is there any cause for concern?

lumps should always be consulted with a doctor although this might be an incidental finding and the pain can be due to sunburn but still it is better that you see a doctor for this.
