Lump in my miniature schnauzer's beard

I am like all of you I'm sure, a bit hyper-vigilant about my baby's health...Liv is a 5 year old miniature schnauzer.
Last year she had a lump under her beard that was oozing, only found it because she was licking her lips like crazy, today I noticed she was scratching the other side of her face, checked and found a small lump of something in the hair of her beard, it had a tiny drop of blood on one side of it, it was not up against her muzzle, could she have scratched off a tick?
She was groomed earlier in the week?
Your thoughts appreciated..it's Sunday and can't go to Vet until Tuesday
