Under the back of the right side of my jaw there's a small lump that hurts a bit when I push it or squeese it. My jaw has been a bit tender for a few weeks and I've just checked it to see what's wrong and now I feel a lump. I'm scared this may be cancer, because I've smoked for a few months now, I don't want to go to the doctor's though because my parents will find out. Would I be able to go to the doctor's by myself or would they need my parents?
