lumps behind the head of my 1 year old

my one year old has developed a lump behind her ear more to the base of her head. my husband and I are very concerned about it.... more him than me because I remember with my 4 year old daughter she had a similar lump behind her head its just that hers went away more quickly than her sisters. So we are wondering if we should be overly worried about it or not?
