A member asked:
My friend has a hard lump that doesnt move under his chin under the skin. he says its painful and annoying. he also has symptoms of a cold.

Lymph node: This could be a submental(below chin) lymph node which is reacting to an upper respiratory tract infection. If the mass doesn't recede or if it enlarges, I recommend an examination by an otolaryngologist.
