Hi,Dear don't worry.I understood yur health concerns.
-You suffer from acute sub mandibular lymphadenitis due to oral infected tobacco ulcer you had.
-Dont worry for that lump to be Cancerous lump, as its infective lump.
Tratment- I would treat it as follows -
- tb NSAID x5 days
-th antibiotics from Er doctor or GP.x5 days.
- bland liquid diet for 1 WK
- no hot tea or drinks.
- Zytee gel locally 2 times a day.
This would resolve the lump and oral ulcers in 1.5 wks time.
Hope this attends your query.
