Tender Lump Directly Under Chin - Seperate from Thyroid

While putting lotion on my neck, I feel a tender lump directly under my chin. It is clearly above the thyroid. I wouldn't even consider it's location as being on my "neck". It is right under my chin before my neck/throat area begins. Please help!

Does it protrude more if you stick your tongue out?
if so it can be thyroglossal duct cyst

Does it hurt when you eat sour foods, like vinegar or lemon?  It could be a blocked salivary duct.
