Hi, If I were your treating Doctor for this case of bilateral neck lumps, I would come up with three possibilities, these include:

1.     lymph nodes due to some chronic disorder like dandruff, tuberculosis, viral infections, lymphoma or chronic throat / neck infection or even malignant diseases in elderly people!
2.     The second possibility is of benign and simple conditions like lipoma or neurofibroma; there is nothing to worry about these!
3.     viral rashes like chicken pox or EBV infection...

I suggest you to go for an FNAC test of the lumps for confirmation and to relieve your concerns!

Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your questions.

Wishing you good health.
