Painless Movable Lump In The Neck. Anything To Be Concerned?
Hi I've had a painless moveable squishy lump in the lower half of my neck for a few year, it has never caused any pain and I've never had swollen lymph nodes or anything. It really bothers me because it is quite noticeable and I tend to pull at it a lot. I've never had enough courage to go and see a doctor and I am desperate to know what it is. I would be so greatful if anyone could help me out. Thanks so much, Rebecca.
Having a painless lump in the neck can lead us to various diagnosis.
It can be a benign lesion , a lymph node or a tubercular swelling.
Since it is persisting since long, it is better to get it checked.
A biopsy is required in some such cases. Consult a physician for the same.
Hope it helps
Dr Geetika Paul.
