What Causes A Hard Lump At The Side Of The Neck Post Bout Of Cold?
I have a hard lump on the left side of my neck just above my collar bone. Could it be a lymph node and what can I do to relieve it, should I be worried about it. It appeared during a bad congested cold I had with a very bad cough that lasted for two weeks. It is not sore to the touch and is the size of the tip of my small finger tip.

HI
Well come to HCM
If this is really lymph node then this is nothing to worry because this could be normal one, sometime this could be tender to touch but this does not always be the sign of any disease, but it is advisable to keep this under observation for any bad changes, hope this information helps, take care.
