Likely ok: Lymph nodes can present like that, but it could be something els also. You didn't say how long it has been there or if it is growing or tender. These are all things your doctor will want to know if it doesn't go away in 2-3 wks.

Node: most likely, but differential cyst, bone, sebaceous cyst, fibroma
Any prior surgery, punctures? In that area.
See PCP or general surgeon.
