Suggest Treatment For Large Lump Between My Shoulder And Neck

I have a large lump between my shoulder and neck. It appears after I carry my laptop bag, then goes away after a couple of days. Warm to the touch but not inflamed. This has happened 4 times now during these same circumstances. Is this cellulitus caused by pressure from bag strap?
