Hi ,    I am a 52 116lb female and recently Ive noticed a lump in the back of my neck, I would think it comes from fat, but at 116lbs I am not overweight . Is there any way to determine what it is ( my massage therapist said it was inflammation from posture) If it is inflammation, how can I fix it ? The lump is in the back of my neck and shoulder plates.
Hello! Thank you for the query. Such lump is a lipoma or debacles cyst most likely. Both are benign lesions. Lipoma does not hurt. Debacles cyst can get infected and cause inflammation in this area. The best way to determine what it is, is to make an ultrasound of this lump. In case of lipoma or cyst, both can be removed with small incision. Hope this will help. Feel free to ask further questions. Regards.
