Lump at bottom of head/neck

Question

Asked for Male, 16 Years

Squishy little lump/bump at bottom of head/top of neck area under skin at right hand side. Have had it for as long as i can remember but only freaking out about it now. It does not cause me bother or anything at all. It does not cause pain (only tender when pressed down on it). What could this be and is this normal and me being overdramatic? Thx
