What Causes Lump On The Jaw Bone?

Am in remission for MALT lymphoma, started in right salivary gland which has been removed,had MabThera treatment and all seemes to be ok though at the moment I have a lump growing along the top of my left jawbone near ear, have had ct scan for check up and my onc said it wasn t mentioned and he felt it, it was probably the size of a large pea then and didn t seem to be concerned, It has now grown along my jaw and it is about the size of a small marble and the one next to it is pea size. I m having a scan soon and am hoping it is arthritis( I have osteo) or some TMJ disorder. Any thoughts? Ps it is hard,painless and non movable. Thankyou
