Hi, dear I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. You may have some lymphnode enlargement. It may be due to tuberculosis or metastatic carcinoma. It can be some other tumor also. You should go for fine needle aspiration cytology of that lump. It will give you exact diagnosis. Then you should take treatment accordingly. Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
