Hello,
Welcome to HealthcareMagic. The lump you mentiones, is it inside your throat(on back)base of tongue or outside over skin? These kind of lumps lymph nodes, pharyngeal pouch,tuberculosis, or even a tumor like lymphoma. So i would suggest you to consult with a dermatologist, in case it is external or an ENT specialist, if it is inside and also better get a biopsy too done. Take care.
