Most probably it will be a swollen lymph node. As of now you can try analgesics like paracetamol syrup for symptomatic relief. If the lesion persists, it is better to consult a pediatrician and get evaluated.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Wishing you good health.
Thanks.
