Avatar n tn t know if you ever found out what that lump on your neck/shoulder was, but if you did, what was it? I have one too, right where the neck meets the shoulder, but have not ever had any injury. Anyway, i hope evrerything is okay now.
Avatar m tn Fast forward to about a month ago (two months after I found the bumps by my elbows), I was laying down on my couch at home and was rubbing the area about halfway between my shoulder and neck and I came across a very hard lump that almost seems to be sitting on top of my trapezius muscle, or whatever the muscle is called between the neck and shoulder. Again, upon further self-examination, I feel the same very hard lump in what seems the same exact spot on the opposite shoulder area.
Avatar n tn I've been having issues with my back for about a year and a half now. I had MRIs recently of all three areas of my spine, the only abnormal result being spinal stenosis at around C5-C7. For about the last month and a half I've been experiencing more soreness in my neck and shoulder on my right side. The soreness from the shoulder seems to be from my shoulder blade to my triceps area mostly, with a bit of tingling and decreased sensation in that arm.
Avatar m tn It is situated above and to the right of her left shoulder on the back, almost at the nape of the neck (so between shoulder blade and neck but up high at the nape of the neck). It is under the skin and can be felt at the nearly same position even if the skin is shifted around (we think it may not be a part of the skin), it feels like it is situated on the muscle under the skin. She has had it a week and she finds it annoying.
Avatar n tn I have heard of so many people complaining of left shoulder and neck pain. I am trying to find answers for myself. I have had shoulder and neck pain now for almost 2 months. No relief what so ever, but my concern is that my collarbone feels swollen with a lump like feeling at the end of it. The lump just showed up in the midst of all this pain, and I am concerned.
Avatar f tn Before the lump I had heavines of arm and discomfort in shoulder and upper back shoulder same side of the lump. (I don't know if these symptoms are related to the findings).
Avatar m tn It started to get better but then I got the same pain in the right shoulder which travelled down my arm. At this point a lump appeared on my left side accross my 1st rib which was very painful to touch. The doctor I saw said it could be costocondritis. However the lump seemed to go away after a few days but the pain remained in my right shoulder. It then moved through my chest area around my heart and I had difficulty breathing as it hurt too much to expand my lungs fully.
Avatar f tn m a 30 yr old female with anxiety disorder and constantly under stress. Recently, I noticed a small lump on my right side, towards the bottom of my neck (between the base and shoulder). It is painless, moveable, and changes in size throughout the day, but it is never bigger than approximately 1 cm. It feels spongy at times, but then it gets firmer. I've also been experiencing sinus/allergy/rhinitis issues due to the season. Other than that, I have no other symptoms.
Avatar f tn Is it a way that it can press against a nerve? It's just strange that this is all happening on the Same side as the lump. Basically I'm experiencing numbness and tingling and my upper back/shoulder blade feels pinched.
Avatar m tn She also had some pain in the neck, shoulder and upper back. Went to her OBGYN today and she was told that thyroid seemed a little big and was sending her for blood work. Does this seem like a possible explaniation? She has been to the ER, GP and maybe a specialist depending on her most recent medication. I just don't see how this can relate to a throid issue.

It is under the skin and can be felt at the same position even if the skin is shifted around (we rule out that it is a part of the skin but rather under it), it feels like it is situated on the muscle under the skin.

Avatar f tn I have a lump on the right side of my neck under my ear. It is about the size of a strawberry I would say. It started out just a few little bumps all in a row and since January it has turned into one big lump. I have been to the clinic 3 times and the doctors keep saying it should just go away. However it is getting worse, more pain and my right arm and shoulder muscles are starting to stiffen up and getting sore.
1549138 tn?1293932007 I have a lump on the bottom of my neck on the left hand side. Every time I rub the lump it hurts really bad and releases tension allowing me to crack my neck. I can't quite figure out what the lump is and if it is harmful. I think its pressing on a nerve. The lump is sometimes swollen and sometimes not. Does anyone know what it could be? Its been around for going on two years. Thanks for reading and I hope to recieve awesome feedback!
Avatar f tn When I massage it the dull uncomfortable pain gets better. I also have a lump on my neck that connects to the spot above the collarbone. I have gone to the Dr.s but she said I have fibrosis. Something about muscles. Can anyone help... Please I dont know what to do...
Avatar m tn My girlfriend developed a relatively small lump on the back of her neck at the base of her skull just above her hairline about 3 inches from her right ear. It developed fairly recently. I am always rubbing her back and neck because she had been in a car accident a couple of years ago and experiences chronic back pain, and did not feel it until 2 days ago. It is not visible on the skin, is about the size of dime or nickel, and causes her pain if pressure is applied.
Avatar f tn Detected a lump on the upper right back of neck parallel to ear in the hairline last Fri. Saw my internist past Tue & had ultrasound performed. Report said, “hypoechoic structure measuring 1.9 x 1 x 1.4 cm within the scalp. It says possible lipoma but lymph node not entirely excluded”. I have 3 lipomas on right side of body but since I had Stage 1 melanoma on left side of shoulder a yr ago we are getting me into see the oncologist who removed my melanoma for further eval.
Avatar n tn I have suffered from migraines since I was a teenager, and it wasn't until the last few years that I noticed the pain that occurs between my neck and shoulder triggers the headache. Yesterday, the headache finally 'broke,' but there is an egg-sized lump on the left side between my shoulder and neck (at the top of shoulder and base of neck). I am glad other people have experienced this because it is starting to freak me out too.
Avatar m tn About 6 weeks ago I noticed in the shoulder/neck area on my left side I had a small little lump (feels like less than 1cm, almost like a pea maybe?). I figured I was getting sick (sure enough 2 weeks later I had bronchitis, bad cough, fever, and went on a Z-pack). I'm a 20 year old healthy male with psoriasis (hasn't really acted up much my father has it too it got worse as he got older). Family history is very healthy.
Avatar n tn i have a swelling on the left side of my neck just above my collarbone. It seems to get bigger during the day, as when i wake it is not there really. It is painless. I take thyroxine 75mg as i have been diagnosed with underative thyroid. Is this lump due to this? i thought a goitre would be central on the neck?
Avatar f tn 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.
