Lump near jawline

2021-01-10 07:57:19
I have a small pea sized lump near my jawline on my left side. I noticed it 3 years back. Its almost the same size and no other symptoms. It is at the jawline and can move up and down that is below and above the jawline. I am attaching the picture for locating. I am worried. Is it something serious?? Please answer. What to do next?

Will need a picture with clean shave to locate the lump. An ultrasound can be done to get an idea what it could be. Treatment can be decided according to report
Next Steps
In clinic or online consult

If its small in size and not increasing since 3 yrs nothing to be worried could be lipoma. Get one USG NECK done once to reconfirm and see nearby ENT with report
