A lump that is located by the jaw line in the neck can be indicative of many conditions, such a swollen lymph node or infected tooth. When there is swelling in this area, a follow up with a physician is recommended.

I get that about once a year. When I got it originally and went to the dentist she told me that one of my tooth's roots were inflamed (at the time she said it was my 12 year molar) and that it's nothing to sorry about. It stays about two days and then disappears.
