It could be due to some infection in tooth, lymph node. Need to check it properly before diagnosing anything. Consult doctor online or offline for better guidance and treatment options.

Hello. Hope you are doing well. Reason of your concerns can be many like enlarged facial lymph nodes, lipoma and so on which cannot be diagnosed via online consultation. It will be advisable to visit your nearest Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeon for definitive diagnosis and treatment planning accordingly.
