Slightly Raised Oval Shaped Bump On Neck. No Change In Lotions, Detergents. Causes And Cure?

I have slightly raised oval shaped bump on my neck . I went to the emergency room and they told me it was a hive. It does not itch or hurt, but now that i m looking at images online it does not look like a hive. I don t have insurance so I can t afford to go back to the ER and get charged for another visit. I also don t have money for a doctor visit. I m a super clean person. More like OCD . Didn t change detergents or lotions.

Psychiatrist 's  Response
Hi there ~

I understand your concern. The slightly raised oval shaped bump on the neck is concerning. I would think that it might be diagnosed with proper imaging studies and an x ray as well as a barium swallow or an endoscopic examination may be helpful. I hope you consult an ENT doctor as well as a psychiatrist in this case, so as to get the right treatment.

I hope this helps. Take care and have a lovely day!
