It may be a lymph node. Usually a lymph node is not felt (palpable) it increases in size most commonly due to infections. If you are having a sour throat or tooth infection this might occur. You can wait and watch for a few days. Then you can visit your local doctor to have a look at it
Next Steps
Visit local General Surgeon for clinical examination

It is very difficult to diagnose just in this.  I suggest you visit a doctor for further evaluation.
