Noticed Painless Lump On Neck. What Could It Be?

Hello I've discovered that when I tilt my head to the right there seems to be a lump on the left side of my neck,you can feel it but it isn't painful and you can't see it I'm just wondering should I be worried or do you have any indication what this could be? Thanks

Dermatologist 's  Response
Hello and welcome to HCM,

I read your query and understood your concern. You seem to be having either a harmless cyst under the skin, or lipoma, or painless enlarged lymph nodes .

In any of the above three conditions you do not need to worry about unless there are other symptoms like pain, tenderness etc., when you should go consult a physician.

Hope I helped.
