Your wife might be right.
It very well be a swollen lymph node.
That would be the first thing a doctor would check on.
There is also another possibility. A spiedr bite. It's very common for us to get them while we're sleeping.
Look around your bed and see if there is a spider and it's web near by.
That would be the second most common cause.
YOU'RE lucky! I usually got mine on my eyelids while sleeping. Lol.
Take comfort in the fact that whatever it is, there is a 98% chance that it is not serious.
I'm a retired RN(nurse). If you continue to have this symptom, and you can't find a spider near your bed, go see your doctor.
You wouldn't want to wait in case it's lymphoma. (Cancer of the lymphnodes).

Yes...it could be a benign cyst. But it needs checking out friend.
