Don't panic at all. These are not lumps just they are a group of lymph nodes situated below your jaw. They are normal anatomical structures. If you feel pain in them or tenderness or pain during swallowing then it can b a sign of infection for that you can consult your near by doctor otherwise no need to take antibiotics without any prescriptions.
