Painful lump under/behind left jaw bone?
You don't give us your age, but you look and sound like a teen. On this site that generally means excessive anxiety and fear of cancer even though teens are the most unlikely age to have malignancies. Your tender lump is almost certainly an inflamed lymph node - not cancer. Here is normal lymph nodes anatomy in the head and neck region (below). Lymph nodes become inflamed in response to infection somewhere in the head and neck area. That is what they are supposed to do. You do not need a dermatologist or have a "scan." This is not an emergency. You could see your regular doctor to ease your anxiety. We cannot examine this over the internet. Your doctor may find the source of the infection. He or she may give you an antibiotic for the primary infection if indicated. http://images.search.yahoo.com/images/vi... - - - Cancers do not pop up overnight, and they are usually not tender/painful.
I have this painful lump under my skin next to my left hip bone. I found it this morning. Any ideas?

My mother used to have a painful lump under her jaw, but after two weeks the lump has faded away. Should she still see a doctor?
It might be just an inflamed lymph node. That's because there is history of cough and pain on the swelling. Due to throat infections lymph nodes can swell and present as lumps with pain. They are temporary and subside once the infection has subsided. Cancer swellings are generally painless and tend to persist. So I don't think there's much to worry about.
How do you treat a sore lump under the jaw bone?

It might very well be a swollen salivary glands, these can harbor cancer, so see a doc, only timely surgery can cure such a cancer.

I found a lump under my chin between my jaw bones and it hurts should I be concerned?
It's hard to explain where it is at but if i were to lift up my head it's pretty much right in between my jaw bones under neath my chin and it's semi painful whenever i touch it and is somewhat big enough to see popping out although it is not huge i don't have a lot of underneath chin fat so you can see its uneven bulged area. I'm very concerned mainly because lumps scare me I haven't told anyone yet because i just noticed it this morning. but i have no idea what it might be or if it can be cancerous, any answers would be soo appreciated.
