What's this M&M-sized ball on the side of my neck?

I have this weird, M&M sized ball on my neck right below my chin on the right side but not the left. it isn’t popping out or anything, but when I run my finger across that are I can definitely feel it. It is just weird that it is on one side and not the other. Do I have anything to worry about?

I bet it’s a boil or ingrown hair. It happens. Either can be extracted by hot compresses. 20 min. on 20 min. off repeat until the head pops up on it. If it’s a ingrown hair break the top of the skin and pull it out with a tweaser. If it’s a boil it will head and pop itself with heat compresses.
