I have a small dime sized ball right on my lower left jaw line. I was recently ill with a cold and noticed this once my cold started to settle. It is directly On my jawline and sometimes under it when i move my neck. It only causes some discomfort. What is this?
Hi, Nothing to worry, the lump you are having might be having enlarged sub mandibular lymph nodes. This might be due to some infection in mouth or throat. As you had cold, at the same time there might be having pharyngitis or tonsillitis might gave this problem. Do warm water antiseptic gargles. Ok and take care.
