Lymph node: Seems this is associated with an inflamed lymph node. Most of the time it is caused by an infection in this case most likely in your upper respiratory tract. Majority of those are caused by a virus and resolve on their own. When symptoms persist then it is time to visit your provider or ent. At this time anti inflammatory meds like Ibuprofen may help with pain and inflammation.

Exam: It's best to have any persistent lump in the neck examined by a physician to check for enlarged lymph gland, cyst or growth. An otolaryngologist may be consulted.
