Cause Of Hard, Movable Lump Under Jaw That Hurts When Pushed?
Hello, Yesterday, I noticed a hard movable lump under the left side of my jaw. It s slightly bigger than 1 cm. I can only feel it when I push it out. It only hurts when I push on it, then it feels tender and sore. I m worried it s something serious (when i think lump , I immediately think cancer ).

Hello,
Thanks for the query,
Probably you are suffering from lipoma.

It is a benign collection of fat.
Dont worry it is not a serious thing.
The nly possible treatment is surgical removal,
Please meet a dermatologist for exact diagnosis.
