Will she be ok to weight to see the doc till Monday our should i bring her into the er I'm scared shed only 20 months old and we just went threw a cancer battle with my sister
I have the exact same thing. Im glad to know that it isn't serious. I can totally relate to your story completely. Thanks! Now i can stop worrying:)
I have a marble like knot that the doctor has said it was an enlarged facet joint with arthritis. Another doctor said it was a lymph node, another said it was bone spur... so I don't really know what it is. It's located on the back left side and what feels like is under the muscle. It feel like a marble and does not move like it could be some kind of bone??? The whole left side of my neck is sore and I have pain constantly. I can move my head up and down and left and right...but to tilt ear to shoulder is hard and hurts both going the left and right. Anyone have any ideas for me?
My 19 year old son has a hard marble sized lump on the left back side of his neck right at the hair line. He said it has been there for a while but just showed it to me a couple days ago. It is something new, not something he has had for years. It doesn't hurt. It is pretty much the same color as his skin except for a very, very slight pinkness at the site. He has no insurance and we are both concerned about it. I am open for your comment and advice. Thank you... Mom
I have the exact same issue. Thank you so much for the info because I was really freaking out that it might be cancer.
Thanks, for the advice Angryt, I did end up going to the doctor for a un-related reason, and just asked her after if she could take a look at the lump for me, she told me that it's just a skin cyst, and that if it was a tumor it would have grown after all this time, she also asked me if i wanted to get it removed, and referred me to a dermatologist. I don't think it'll be worth getting removed, it doesn't cause any pain or discomfort.
Hi, it sounds like it could be a lymph node, but if it is small and not easy to feel i wouldn't worry to much. If it hasn't grown in 2 years and you have no other symptoms, and you have to press to feel it, it is probably nothing.
Some people can just feel the odd lymph node, some people can feel them all. If you are concerned see a doctor and tell him you think it's nothing but to put your mind at ease.
