Moveable lump in neck?

[Keith]

I brushed my neck tonight and felt something. Naturally with health anxiety I felt around and found a small lump which is movable. :scared15:

Has anyone ever had something like this before, getting really nervous. :scared15:

Hi,
I have around (no joke) 9 of these had them for years, I have one on my face, one under my chin and around 6 or 7 in my neck. I was so freaked out when I first found them, but I can assure you its normal :) Its called a lymph node, they come up when you've been feeling a bit under the weather (even if you don't have symptoms of a cold or whatever), infection or even if you get something like a cat scratch. Its very normal a lot of people get them, sometimes they go down and other times they just don't so don't be too freaked out if they don't ever go away mine haven't for the past 3 years lol.

Must be from a few months ago when my glands became swollen, thanks I guess anxiety got the better of me.
