Is The Swollen Lymph Node And A Lump On My Neck Related?
hi, i have a swollen lymph node on left side of neck its quite big but painless, just noticed it couple of days ago, and also have painful lumps on back of head at bottom left side which about a week ago i think i had a rash or infection around as it was swollen and really itchy but its not as bad now but its the lump on my neck im wondering if that could be connected? thanks
1. Painful lump which looks like a rash - suggest most possible cause is hair follicle infection. 2.Usually they arise form hair follicle with collection of the pus within. 3.The lymph nodal enlargement are usually due to any infection / inflammation, can be localised or systemic. 4.If it is resolving as you said - then nothing to worry, other wise a course of antibiotics will be required. 5.Do not scratch / press / disturb the lump as in that way you will complicate it to heal. And maintain local hygiene.
Good luck. Hope i have answered your query, any thing to ask ? do not hesitate to ask. http://doctor.healthcaremagic.com/doctors/dr-ganesh/62888
