I have a hard nodule on my on my neck about a 1/2 an inch away from my ear lobe. It is non moving and not painful. I first noticed it about two years ago and it started out the size of a pimple and has grown to the size of a marble. What are the possible causes of this. I have an appointment in 9 days and would like to be prepared.
Hi, Dear,Good evening. Thanks for your query to Chat Doctor. I studied your query in depth. In my opinion the lump in the neck is mostly of -Sebaceous Cyst-which is lately growing as its is non-moving and painless. Other possibilities could be-?of your 2 yr son is mostly due to-lymphadenitis with scalp infestation or scalp-infection- ? Or it could be -HL/NHL, Infectious mononucleosis? Viral?TB lymphadenits? Lymes?. Hope this answers your query. Hope this would clarify the worry you had. Would love to Welcome your queries to Chat Doctor.
