First noticed 7ys ago tiny lump,went last wk,had us,cystic mass lft parotid tail,tiny 10mm.if cancer,would it be bigger by now, if so tiny after 7yrs?

Warthin tumor?: Benign masses are far more common, based on cystic nature most likely Warthin tumor. If solid most commonly pleomorphic adenoma also benign. You should see ENT physician for followup. Bx is an option if you or doctor are concerned.
