I have a lump on the left side of my neck. It has been there for about 2 weeks. It s about 2 inches away from the bottom of my ear lobe. It s hard & doesn t move. Recently it started hurting whenever I turn my neck & today I started to feel a throbbing pain by the lump. I also have pain in the back left side of my neck. I do have a smaller lump on the left side of my neck, but that one is small & doesn t hurt, and it moves around a little. I was just wondering what could cause this. Could it be cancerous? I do plan on going to the hospital tomorrow night (I d go tonight, but I have to work early tomorrow morning), so I will talk to a doctor in person & have them check it out, but I just wanted to get an idea of what s going on.
Hi.it is best if you consult with a doctor, preferably a general or an ENT surgeon, for medical and physical examination. Two things to consider primarily based from your description
