General Surgeon 's  Response
hi.

it is best if you have a consult with a general surgeon with regards to your neck lumps. a neck ultrasound or ct-scan will be of help in characterizing those lesions. tissue diagnosis or biopsy will be directed accordingly if indications are found. monitoring of those lesions is also advised.

hope this helps.

good day!!
