This is the normal location for a simple lymph node. Many are scattered through the body and are often evident in areas like the head and neck where they are not buried in fat or under muscles. They enlarge some when they work on cleaning body serum and shrink within weeks to around 1 cm size at rest. Have your doc confirm this or ignore it.

Agree with Dr. Ferguson. However, a cyst can also be a possibility especially if it persists. There isn't much to do about that either, but if it becomes larger, red, painful, or you develop a fever, you should have your doctor check it.
