You may have enlarged lymphnode. It can be due to reactive hyperplasia, tuberculosis or lymphoma. You should take a course of antibiotics. if it does not respond to treatment then you should go for fine needle aspiration cytology or biopsy of that lump. it will give you exact diagnosis then you should take treatment accordingly.
