Lump in 2 year olds neck

Felt it this morning, on the side of his neck almost in the crevice where neck meets shoulder. It’s about the size of a paracetamol capsule, feels moveable. Anyone else ever had this?

There are lots of lymph nodes in the neck area. It's likely to be one of those. Has he been poorly recently?
I would make a gp appointment if it doesn't settle over the next couple of days.

Thank you for your reply. I can’t think of anything too recently, I mean he’s usually got a runny nose & had a chest infection about 6 weeks ago but that’s it.
