Avatar m tn I have a 9 year old and he has a little lump in the right side of his neck. The lump is the size of a marble. there is no pain or anything but its been there for awhile. what would it be and what should I do?
Avatar f tn i have had this sensation of a lump in my throat for about two weeks now. I was in the ER a few weeks ago due to somethin unrelated (so I thought). I was having severe mid chest pains. To sum it all up, the ER doctors thought I was having a gall bladder attack or ulcer. Anyways, the tests disproved that and my family doctor later said it could be due to the fact that I was wearing SPANX....that's right...the slimming apparel!
Avatar m tn The lump can't be seen but its just below my skin...My doctor even laughed at me and said, "How did you notice this".I know its not something serious,but anxiety has now started causing breathing problems...i read that breathing problem is associated with childhood lymphoma, i immediately started to feel shortness of breath...It got fine when i stopped thinking about it...Even a single comment can give me relief so please help me...

Avatar n tn I have been taking topamax for migraines for about a year now and have just found a soft bump, about an inch in size, to the right of my thyroid. Do you think that would be a thyroid condition? I do have an anxiety problem as well and I am afraid to have it looked at.
Avatar n tn Hi Cariadlawn, I'm a 22 year old female and I have the same painless lump in the same spot as you. I've had it for a little over a year. I read a lot of stuff on the internet about lymphoma and it scared me too. I said to myself that when I see a Dr. he or she better not give me antibiotics and dismiss it because I read how that happened to so many people and it didn't work and I knew it wasn't from an infection because I had it for so long.
Avatar f tn I'm a 16 year old female. I have what feels to be a 3 in. lump under the muscle of the right side of my neck that's been present for 2 years. It's in the middle of the side of my neck and slowly growing to the front of my neck. Doctors did an ultrasound plus blood work and saw nothing abnormal and said it's just me growing. There's no pain but it's uncomfortable and causes pressure on the inside my neck. Do you think it is from growing or something else?
Avatar n tn I am a 24 year old female who is normally a very heatlhy person. About a week before my period I start getting cold and flu like symptoms. I ignored them thinking that I just have severe PMS symptoms. About six months ago I noticed a lump on the right side of my neck. The doctors have checked me for diabetes, mono, thyroid, lupus, and many other things. I have also had a CT on the neck and an upper GI.
Avatar f tn She threw her head back and laughed. Just then I caught a glimpse of a lump at the top of her neck, not far down from the jaw. I got on the internet right away to see what I could find. A majority of sites said it was probably from a recent viral infection, which she had just gotten over. I decided to rest her and give it a week and try not to panic about it. It worked and the lump went almost entirely away. That is until today. It's back. She's not had a recent viral infection.
868575 tn?1250188018 I have had a lump beihnd my right ear over the edge of the temporal bone for about a year. Recently noticed it is a little larger, and irritating or irritated by my hearing BTE hearing aids. I can not wear headbands, my hearing aid or anything behind my ear because of it. I wanted to have the lump removed. It is about 4cm in diameter, very hard, normally painless, and immobile. A doctor a year ago suggested it was just a cyst and nothing to bother with.
Avatar m tn A couple of times per week lately. Have felt like I have a cold for a few weeks. Tickle in throat causing an occasional cough. The tickle and an ache feels like it is under my right clavicle. The only infection I can imagine would be in my sinus'. I have been experiencing some pressure, sensitive raw kinda feeling, and some minor pain mostly on the right side. These sinus problems have been an ongoing issue for several years.
Avatar m tn I have developed a lump on the left side of my adams apple, even with it (not above or below). The lump is solid and i can move it a little bit. My throat is not sore, doesnt hurt when i swallow, doesnt hurt if I touch around it, only if I touch the lump. Then it hurts very much. I developed this same lump about 6 months ago and the doctor dismissed it as stress/job related. It did go away a few days later. Any ideas as to what causes this or what it could be?
Avatar f tn Ok, so I have now had a swollen lymph node on the left side of my neck for about a year. I am about to be 22 and I am disconcerted with the fact that it has remained swollen for so long. I have a history of sinus infections but since summer I have been trying herbal remedies such as ImmuBoost, olive leaf extract and claritin D(which is not herbal I know but it seems to help).
Avatar m tn Hi. I noticed a small lump on the side of my neck today, under my skin. My smoking recently picked up, after getting a construction job, so the lump is really freaking me out. I know I have to go to see a doctor, but am uncomfortable going to my family doctor. Does anyone know if walk in clinics can get the job done? I'm not sure if they'll have all the equipment necessary to check.
Avatar f tn t anhere to the underlying tissue and creates a sliding plane so likely will need a revision in a year!! Hang in there! Time heals all wounds.
Avatar n tn I noticed this weekend a big lump in neck between adams apple and base of neck; the lump moves when i swallow - went to er and it said swollen cartilage - i'm not comfortable with this diagnosis. Anyone else experienced this? thanks.
Avatar n tn In most cases, a lump that moves is better news than a hard, stationary lump. However, it wouldn't hurt to have an ultrasound just to be sure, so ask your doctor to order one. If he refuses, ask him to refer you to someone else. Good luck to you!
Avatar n tn Hi! I was wondering if you could answer a question for me. I have had a lump in my neck for months now. It doesn't hurt and it has grown at all. I went to the doctor and he told me that he doesn't feel it. He took blood work which all came back normal. A few weeks later I had strep and took zpak, which clearned the strep but not the lump. Should I have this lump further examined? I DEFINITELY feel it and I can't understand how he did not.
Avatar m tn Hello all! So around august last year, I discovered a lump around the size of a nickel underneath the right side of my jaw. It doesn't protrude from the area, rather I need to puff out my throat to be able to feel it. At first I thought nothing of it and thought it was just an enlarged node as I compared it to the other side and it is relatively biggerIt's been almost one year, and it has still remained there, no change in shape and size.
