I Recently Found A Lumps On Head And Neck. It Has Been Causing Severe Discomfort When I Move My Neck From Side To Side.

Hi, I m 23 years old, male. I recently found that I had a lump just at the back of my hairline on the left side, directly on the tendon of my neck. It has been causing severe discomfort when I move my neck from side to side. This is also coupled with a similar bump on the left top of my head (which feels almost like a bruise but has a bit more of a burning sensation) and also a smaller bump also on the left side on my neck just under my chin. I have been undergoing a lot of stress recently and thought that might be causing it, but didn t know if there was something I could do to fix or alleviate the problem.

Dear Delrick, Welcome to Healthcaremagic!
Have you had an injury? You can take Tab. Acetaminophen or Tab. aspirin for pain. I advice you to consult a general surgeon ASAP for full evaluation. Good luck.

Hello.
Welcome to HealthcareMagic forum.
Your description matches with swollen neck lymph nodes. It needs to be taken seriously and you should get all your blood investigations done to pinpoint the diagnosis.After that a lymph node biopsy may be needed. Work fast before it spreads.
