Hello,
Pea sized painless lump on cheek could be due to lymph node enlargement or soft tissue swelling. I suggest you to consult your primary healthcare provider for clinical assessment and fine needle aspiration from the swelling.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
