welcome to Health care magic.
1.Most likely cause cold be (carbuncle /furuncle) hair follicle infection, or a abscess infective aetiology.
2.Other possible causes in this region could be lymph nodal enlargement ( due to any underlying medical conditions / systemic diseases)
3.It seems like you have notices in very early stage, so get an appointment and see your GP, after examination a course of antibiotic could help in this case.
4.Do not delay as they do grow and complicate.
5.If you are my patient i would ask for a ultrasound to evaluate the nature of lump, origin and extensions.
Hope it helps you. Wish you a good health.
Anything to ask ? do not hesitate. Thank you.
