I regret to tell you that your anole probably has an abscess. Look on Alanolis's site for information about them, and for a couple of pictures which might help you out. http://www.kingsnake.com/anolecare/25.htm#1 You will need to take your anole to a vet if this is what it has..and get the vet to drain it.

Good luck with everything, and let us know how it goes!

It is most likely an ABSCESS, which is a puss filled swelling. It will probably need to be drained by a vet, but I have heard of special care helping them. Look here Kingsnake.com anole care
