Suggest Cause And Remedy For Tiny Hard Lump Near The Jawline

My daughter is 9 yrs old & no known health conditions. Last night before bedtime, she complained that she can feel a tiny hard lump (I think) that hurts if a little pressure is placed. Since on jawline the little lump moves around when you try to locate it. She also have cold sure inside her mouth for the last two days. Do you think the two symptoms are associated? Vera

From history it seems that she might be having enlarged, painful submandibular lymph node giving rise this problem.
This can be due to some active infection in throat or some problem in tooth.
Consult your doctor and get her examined,
She might require a course of antibiotic medicine.
Avoid giving fried, junk food and cold drinks.
Ok and take care.
