Should Tenderness Of Chin And Swelling Of Lymph Node In Ear Be A Cause Of Worry?

A few weeks ago my lymph node by my right ear was swollen, felt like a gumball. That went away and now under my chin is tender and I was wondering if there is a node there and should I be worried? If I lean my head back and rub under my chin it is uncomfortable but don t really feel a ball.
