Unknown Internal Growth in neck/chin region - harder and more solid than normal

Hi,

With a small, tender "internal growth" without any alarming symptoms, I would guess that it is an
enlarged lymph node in your submental area (beneath the chin). 

This may be related a non-specific inflammation, perhaps due to spread of mild infection from the mouth.

You should gargle with warm saline three or four times a day, use Tenolol if the soreness bothers you, and
maybe apply warm water bottle to the sore area.

If the problem persists, pl see your doctor.
