If you're trying to search the exact 2, then suppose you could explode them first, then in_array() just like @barmar has said.

$a = "1,22,3,4,5,6,7,8,9";
$word = "2";
$a = explode(',', $a);
if(in_array($word, $a)) {
    // Found!
    echo "$word is found in \$a";
} else {
    // sorry not found
    echo "$word is NOT found in \$a";
}
