What Could Lumps On Chin Suggest?

Yesterday I noticed that my almost 1 year old has an almost marble sized hard lump under his chin. It is hard to tell if it hurts him because he has a double chin so you have to hold him down to see it and he cries but not sure if it because it actually hurts or if he just doesn't like it. He has been as happy as ever, sleeping well and eating fine. Do I need to take him in to the doctor? What could it be?
