Seek treatment: This could be caused by several things;with no pain &assuming it larger by the day it could be a clogged salivary gland located directly below the lower front teeth and easily solved or a large aggressive cyst (there are several types). Please see a dentist/oral surgeon/ent asap.

Under chin and neck: Excess tissue under the chin and neck is most commonly due to excess fat or sagging skin from age. However, other options may include congenital cysts, thyroid condition, or lymph nodes. A comprehensive evaluation by a physician, which may include a ct scan, is required to appropriately answer your question.
