Consider CT or MRI neck with contrast.
I'm 19 years old. I have the exact same thing. Two painless bumps, one below the other on the left side of my neck. And one bump behind my left ear right on the bone. I've had them for years but never had them checked out. The top bump on my neck feels like its gotten slightly bigger in the past week or so. I don't what to go to the doctor and embarrass myself if its nothing. But I also don't want to not do anything about it. What should I do?
I am dealing with the exact same issue. I have a hard lump that is about an inch to 1.5 inches beneath my right ear right behind my jawline. It is also hard and presents with the same congestion/sinus issues that were described above. Has anyone received any answer's to what this is? My father passed from throat cancer that had spread throughout his lymph nodes and throat at the age of 48. My IM has brushed it off as sinus/allergy issues due to my age. (37)
I have the exact same thing.., on the right side. What did they find?

Hi I wondering if you managed to find out what the issue is ? I'm 29 year old female with the exact same issues as you and cariadlawn I'm having a biopsy next week but just curious as to what they found you had ?
Hi Cariadlawn,
I'm a 22 year old female and I have the same painless lump in the same spot as you. I've had it for a little over a year. I read a lot of stuff on the internet about lymphoma and it scared me too. I said to myself that when I see a Dr. he or she better not give me antibiotics and dismiss it because I read how that happened to so many people and it didn't work and I knew it wasn't from an infection because I had it for so long. I finally went to the Dr a few days ago and she had me get blood work and is referring me to an Oncologist to check out the lump and get a biopsy. I was glad that she didn't blow it off like it was nothing but at the same time it worries me. I think you should see another Dr and demand they do more and figure out what it really is. It could be nothing so try not to worry too much about it.
i have a lump like this but its lower down not nere lymph nodes and by my coller line just a bit higher. I noticed it once i started loosing weight. I also have had to get glasses but im not sure if its related. I had perfect vision and in less than 6 months, I went to 20-40 20-50. I thnik this might be conected. No doctors have noticed this lump. Please comment back.
I forgot to mention that I am a 28-year-old female.
