See Your Doctor: The presence of a mass in this area can have a few causes e.g. lymph node, cysts, and more. Enlargement of these structures can be the result of infection, inflammation, trauma, and more. A thorough history is needed including duration, presence of other symptoms, recent illness, trauma, past medical history, and more. Visual inspection is crucial. See your doctor for correct diagnosis/treatment.
