Q: Knot In Jaw

I have this knot in jaw that seems to get larger one day and smaller the next. It seems to start at the base of my jaw bone and feels to be about the size of a marble. It is not sore all the time but today it has gotten a little larger and seems to be sore. What could it be?

I wouldn't even speculate. It could be something big or small. I would get myself to an endocrinologist pronto. Wink
