My cat - approx 12 year old male - has a lump on the back of his neck, between the shoulder blades. It has gradually grown in size over the past 4 months. It is soft, liquid filled - the skin covering it is stretched and transparent looking. It doesn't seem to cause him pain. Yesterday, when the lump was at about the size of half a golf ball, it burst, realeasing a clear liquid. We cleaned it out, but today it appears to be refilling again, quite rapidly. What could this be? Thanks.

My cat has a lump on the side of her neck and the vet said it was a swollen salivary gland. It has increased in size by 60% since the diagnosis. Does anyone know what this means? Can a cat die from this? How can it be treated? Vet said the surgery is too risky since it's so close to the jugular. Help!!! Any info is much appreciated.

I recently had a CAT scan done for a lump in my neck, the CAT scan showed multiple pulmonary cysts. Is this something i should be worried about and follow up with?

A goiter on the other hand can get very painful in pressure and stick out of your neck in a big way. You can have a lump anywhere on the thyroid and even just on one side. Ultrasound is one of the recommended ways of seeing what is going on. Usually this is very good and can show any lumps quite clearly. If not then an MRI or CAT scan is done. If it looks ok the lump may be left alone to monitor for a while. If it looks suspicious a biopsy is usually taken.

About 5 days ago I noticed a small bean shaped lump on the side of my neck (not between the jagular and sternocelidomastoid muslce), but rather on the sternocleidomastoid muscle itself (I think). I consider myself a bit of a hypochondriac so naturally internet search will reveal the worst. All it takes is 1 negative to throw me off balance completely. I went to my GP and he said I might have lymphedema and sent me off to do a ultrasound of the neck followed by FNA.

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.

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?

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.

I have one lump at the side of the neck...I asked my doctor and he said its a swollen lymph node and prescribed antibiotics...The course is finished but the lump is still there...It has not increased in size since a month..I had no signs of infections...My doctor said its nothing serious because i am just 13 and have no symptoms like night sweat or wight loss...Well i just got freaked out when i felt a lymph node one the other side of the swollen one...

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?

Wish I could post a picture I feel a lot of annoying pain in my neck best way to relate is a stiffness a lump looks like a swelled up the ENT said it was around 2 cm more long that wide close to the right side of jaw line but the top of the neck not too close to my ear but I've had terrible migraines on my right side as we'll night sweats loss of appetite, tiredness , the ENT sent me for a blood test for mono but my throat isn't sore and I am a little achy but I'm trying to no

I have had a feeling of a lump in my throat for over a week, during this time I had numbness in my left arm that caused pins and needles and an extreme cold hand and a pulling feeling on my left chest side. I have no insurance but went to the urgent care and heart attack was ruled out. I was told that the numbness and chest feeling is a pulled muscle and given valium to relax the muscle and told to take motrin for pain. A chest xray was done and nodules were noted.

I have a lump underneath my skin on the ack of my neck near the hairline...its a small pea size an hard?? canany1 tell me if i should worry , scared its lymphoma, had it for a week now i notice....

s up through my left abdomen as well and I even have a little swelling in the left gland in my neck. Could this be some kind of lymphatic infection?? The doctor felt the lump and said because it was seperate from the testicle, it can't be cancer. Problem is, the pain is killing me and I no longer have health insurance. Could this be life threatening? All my blood work came back OK as well.

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?

Never noticed it before but I have recently noticed a major difference in my vision (it is really blurry and i dont normally wear glasses) and I have also had the most intense itching in my scalp along with a big bulge on the back of my neck too. I cant believe none of this is unrelated since it all started at the same time. I went to my primary and I am going for an ultrasound and xrays tomorrow.

and then a cancer scare of Lymphoma...i ended up having lymph node surgery on my neck for that lump...thank GOD it was not CANCER BUT a lymph node full of bacteria due to the 'scratch' of that lil kitty.. so, if i were YOU, do go to the Dr and watch out for any other symptoms ok...just as a precaution..cause cats do carry some viruses in their claws.. DO TAKE CARE PLEASE..
