Hello, Welcome Thanks for consulting HCM,
I have gone through your query, you have small lump on bottom jaw dont worry this can be due to periodontal problem due to deposition of food debris .
Consult dentist and go for investigations IOPA Xray if there is periapical pathology then go for Root canal treatment , if there is periodontal problem then go fpr Scaling and root planning .
Do warm saline gargle two - three times a day.
Hope this will help you .
Wishing you good health.
