Suggest Treatment For A Lump In The Neck

I have a lump/knot on the left posterior neck which I believe is a lymph node. It s not painful but since finding this roughly a week ago it seems to be getting slightly larger. Now if I turn or tilt my head to the left I can feel it kind of catch where this lump is.
