Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
Your small lumps is enlarged lymphnode. Mostly it is due to reactive hyperplasia of lymphnode as a result of some infection in draining area. You should take a course of antibiotics. If it doesn't respond to treatment then biopsy diagnosis is advisable. Consult your doctor and take treatment accordingly.
Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer.
