What Could The Hard Neck Lump Be?
I have a hard lump in my neck about the size of a nickel, it moves up and down when I swallow I have no difficulty swallowing or pain I had an ultrasound and the person who did it said it was not attached to my thyroid and a blood test I had confirms no Infection to my thyroid. I have a biopsy scheduled a month from now and am going crazy wondering what it could be.

welcome to Health care magic.
1.It could be lymph nodal enlargement due to any infections / inflammations.
2.Generally ultrasound would characterise the lesion and its source and extensions.
3.It can be Lipomas, Brachial cleft cyst.
Hope it helps you. Wish you a good health.
