Bump on my neck?


Question:
For a few months now i've been noticing, I've had a marble sized bump on the side of my neck,and i can move it alittle.My parents said it would go away on it's own, but it hasn't. It doesn't hurt or anything, it's just worrying me.Could it be a tumour or cancer?

please help!

Answers:
It's probably a swollen lympth node (they're behind your ears, under your arms, and in the groin, primarily), and may take months to years to shrink. If it's just one, there's no need to worry. Try not to handle it. It can become a habit since you know it's there.
Does it talk?
Sure...it could be. Go to a doctor.
its a boil relax!
If it moves around and is not painful, it is probably ok.

It could be a limp node that is swelled up.

Could be a strained tendon or muscle.

If it bothers you see a doctor. Pops
could be, but it's most liley swollen lymph nodes. If it doesn't go away, I would see your dr. have them check your thyroid also
Oh snap... you have the first stages of the "Black Plague"! Goe see a doctor so they can give you the cure and remove that sh!t.
It's your twin. No, it is probably your lymph nodes that are a little inflamed..no biggie mine are all the time. But if you are still concerned bring it up to the Doc on your next visit.
you may have an affliction called hypochondria.
it sounds like it might be a swollen lymph node gland! what this means is that you have an infection somewhere in your body. you have lymph nodes all over your body and they patrol (kinda) the areas that they are close to. you may for example have a sinus infection, or strep throat. that is causing your lymph node to swell. if it gets sore or gets bigger then you might need to get it checked out
Your lump is probably a benign cyst (I'll hold off on type) and it's more than likely NON threatening. The problem is what is this cyst displacing, Have this examined and either treated (drained, removed) If this continues to grow, it could displace other tissue and vessels causing other problems. If this occurs, once removed, you will have a concave shape where the cyst was and these types of issues are not easily dealt with
