Feeling a pea sized lump on neck
Hi doctor, I could feel a small pea sized lump on left side of my neck and right side of my neck I could only feel when I touch it and it is not visible normally ,no pain and it is there for more than 1 year should I worry about it kindly suggest me
Small nodes in the neck area are usually seen in case of infections, and they subside once the infection is resolved . Considering the duration of swelling I advise you to get an USG neck done to know the type and nature of swelling and also a doctor consultation to know the cause for the swelling and it's effective management
