 Help...My Anole has a weird lump!

Okay, I got Stripes under control, and she doing great. However, two days ago my daughter pointed out a large lump on my Jimmy. It is located behind his ear on his neck. At first I thought he got a cricket stuck sideways, but it does not seem to be the case. It looks to me like a cyst under the skin, but I know nothing about this stuff. That is just a way to describe it. He is drinking water, but not eating. He is not as active as he usually is. He has been under the UVB lights a lot. I read on the net last night possibly an ear infection, once again I do not know anything about this. Since I am a newbee to reptiles I find this very scary. Does anyone have any ideas?

It is likely a cyst. He will need to be taken to a vet for treatment (lancing and antibiotics).
