It NEEDS to be checked out. It is probably a swollen lymph node. Question is: what made it swell? It could be nothing, but you need to know for sure. If it's something bad, there are a LOT of good, effective treatments out there, but it must be caught as early as possible. Here's a site where you can find info, and see if you have any other symptoms:

I started with only one lymph node swollen [at the base of my neck on the left side] Bottom line, only a doctor will be able to give you the info you need.

Lymph nodes close to the collar bone are more suspicous and concerning than those higher in the neck. Get to a doctor ASAP.

If the lump bothers you, see a Dr. ASAP. Maybe or may not be cancer,....can be lymph node swollen/something concerning the thyroid. Check with your Dr.

It's possible, but, it could be any number of things including thyroid problems, lymph node infection, etc. You need to see your doctor.

Sounds like you have a lymph node that is infected. It could go away on its own or if it does'nt, you better see a doctor.
