lump in neck gets smaller

I have a hard lump about halfway up the left side of my neck. It changes size, gets smaller, then if I touch it for a few seconds it starts to get bigger again. It's painless and it is moveable. I feel like it's lymphoma and I'm so scared. I'm on Vacation now so can't go to dr so I'm wondering if this points to any kind of cancer for that matter. Please help me!

I found a lump in the bottom of my throat on the right hand side. It is slightly smaller than a marble and slightly tender. It moves up and down when I swallow. I have no thyroid symptoms. I I went to the doctor today and he said that the lump was a vascular formation? That makes no sense to me. It seems rather large to be a vascular. How could he tell the difference between vascular and a thyroid nodule?

Good day! I found a small lump in the right side of my neck. It doesn't hurt. I cannot even see it but I can feel it. It seems to move a little when I want it to. I can say that it is really inside my neck. A relative told me that maybe it is a swollen lymph node. By the way, I am now in my middle term of treating tuberculosis and I'm now feeling fine. When my tb was diagnosed it was a latent one, which means I didn't feel any symptom of it (no cough, no night sweats, etc.).

Is it normal to have small, hard, just slightly smaller than pea sized bumps in this area of the neck? Or is it a good chance of being cancer? I will ask my Dr this week, but I am hoping to get some peace of mind until then. Thanks.

For many years I have had a lump under the skin near my right shoulder blade, on the side near the spine. It sometimes gets large enough to see. Deep massage causes some pain in the lump but it helps the headaches and tension in my shoulders. It does get smaller with massage but never disappears. I asked one doctor and she said it was just a group of fat cells and nothing to be concerned about. However, it causes discomfort more than not.

I am 29 years old woman and got a painless, soft lump on the right downside of my neck. When I press it, it goes in. I went to the doctor but she said it is okay, just got swallowed from infections. I got this lump like two years ago and now it looks like there two one smaller above the first one. I am not quite sure if it is lump or more like bump. Is it something I should be worried about?

My suggestion would be to wait out for a few weeks to see if it changes in size. If it gets smaller, it was nothing. If it happens to get bigger, then pls get it evaluated from your doctor.An FNAC of the lump will give a clear cut picture.Your father may take some pain killers or some anti-inflammatory drug if pain is there. Hope it helps.Take care and pls do keep me posted on how your father is doing or if you have any additional doubts.Kind regards.

, no pain swallowing, but an irregular feeling like a lump or abrasion) WITH what seemed to be salivary gland pain, two (first tender, then hard) lymph glands in neck, and pain/throb in armpit, groin, and femoral region (no noticed lumps except swollen pain in groin while on Augmentin) and ear pain. I will say that I have chewed tobacco or smoked cigarettes for approx. 14 years.

i was tickling my three year old on her neck and noticed a lump on her neck about the size of a lima bean and about an inch below her ear. I then remembered her having this lump as an infant but it being a lot smaller and i just brushed it off then but now that she's older and its gotten bigger i'm concerned... its on her right side and she doesn't have it on her left side.. i was wondering any suggestions on this.

s long and narrow) and what feels like a group of swollen lymph nodes on the left side by my ribs. My dr. felt a lump in my left breast so next Wed. I am going for 2 CT scans, mammogram and an ultra sound. If I were you I would def. keep a check on that lymph node.

It could be a number of things. Have you had it assessed by a physician yet?

Hello sunday i woke up with a big lump on the back top of my neck by my head.. IT is sore and hurts, today i woke up and i have more little bumps going down my neck and one behined my ear.. i have one that moves on the rt side front of my throat right above my collar bone does anyone have any ideas what it could be?????

One day suddenly when i was about to shave my beard, I could feel that something is painful under my chin..to be exact..in my neck..it was little painful and I thought that a pimple is about to pop out...but it has not happened..but from the next day there was a small swelling and it started paining and became worse...

My suggestion would be to wait it out for a few weeks to see if it changes in size. If it gets smaller or remains the same, it was nothing. If it happens to get bigger, then make an appointment with your doctor.A biopsy of the lump may be needed.

I have a smaller lump in the top of my armpit ( if that location makes sense) it doesn't hurt nor is uncomfortable. But I worries me, I do have a cold so I'm not sure if it is a lymph node. What else could it be? Should I go see a doctor? And how should I ask my parents to see the doctor?

the lump actually goes down/gets smaller when i go to sleep. i just wokeup from a minny nap and it was barely visible. after i get up and moving around it gets bigger. anyways im going to the doctors in the morning so i should figure it out. Thanks for all the help medhelp....

My second question and equally important is in regards to the nature of cancer lump. Now if I decided to wait before i could see a doctor in the city and the lump goes away, will it still be consider a cancer treat or not? In other words, doctor, does cancer lump goes away after ew days or does it stay longer and gets bigger? will be a lunmp that gets smaller and goes away consider a canncer treat or not?

after the left lymph node in neck decreased in size i noticed just next to it is a rather small pea sized maybe 0.75mm lymph node.... So my question is are 2 matted lymph nodes that are not enlarged and felt after some really deep pressing,a cause for concern for cancer, And are decreasing lymph nodes in size possibly cancerous in my case? can matted nodes be caused by strep or other sore throat problem? I didnot have tuberculosis...

They feel soft and doughy or rubbery. Lipomas usually grow in the neck, shoulders, back, or arms. Lipomas are the most common noncancerous tumor in adults.
