What Is The Treatment For A Lump On Lower Side Of Jaw?

I have a hard, non-moveable lump on my lower right jaw, that can be felt both from the inside and outside of my mouth. Should I be worried? It was considerably smaller and I was not able to feel it by sticking my finger in my mouth two weeks ago, but I could feel it by pressing on the side of my face.
