Joined: Dec 2011 Posts: 126 | Is it painful? A few weeks ago I had a large painful lump pop up right below my jaw line, which also caused me to panic. However, it went down after I rubbed it for a while. It turned out to be a stone in my salivary duct, and the buildup of the saliva caused my salivary gland to swell. Maybe there is a chance that's what this could be?
