There is the jaw joint there but it's usually not very prominent.. Sometimes lymph nodes also can be present... I suggest you consult a ENT specialist so that you can be sure

There is no obvious swelling apparent in the image. It could be the tragal cartilage or the temperature mandibular joint which are normal structures in that region. However a recent onset painless swelling in that region could indicate a pre auricilar sinus.
