I noticed a soft lump sitting near the neck on my right side behind my collar bone. It does not hurt when I touch it and I dont see/have any other symptons that Ive noticed anyway. It seems like a soft fatty lump or ball the size of the palm of my hand. If I take off my shirt off it is visible as it protrudes up like a bump. What is it??
Hi.it is best if you consult with a doctor, preferably a general or an ENT surgeon, for clinical evaluation. Your neck lesion could be a cervical lymphadenopathy which may be secondary to a recent infection. It could also be lesion of thyroid gland in origin. These tumor lesions are best evaluated clinically. Neck ultrasound, ct-scan or a tissue diagnosis through a biopsy may also be recommended. Management (medical and/or surgical) will be directed accordingly. Hope this helps. Good day!!~ Chat Doctor.
