Hi,
From history it seems that she might be having enlarged tender neck lymph node producing a bump.
Another possibility of having sebaceous cyst and now seems became infected.
To confirm cyst if there is black point at the top of lump, if not then it might be enlarged lymph node.
Consult doctor and get examined.
Ok and take care.
