Hi, I have anxiety and found a lump.
Recently I found a lump on the left side of my neck under my chin, as I have anxiety I am panicking and just feel horrific.
I have convinced myself it's bad and it'll kill me. I'm going to get it checked soon but I can't for a few days so I thought I'd post on here.
But I should mention I have had a bit of a cold for the past week so maybe it's a gland swelling up?
I started panicking when I couldn't feel the same lump on the other side of my neck :(
It's like a bit bigger than a pea and I can move it inside my neck a little bit.

I just wondered if anyone had any thoughts on what it could be? Because I'm having constant full on anxiety attacks over it.

Thanks,

Sam

Hi Sam,
Sounds just like a gland to me. I often can feel swollen glands under my chin when I've got a cold and they've never caused me any trouble. Do pop along to your doctor though if you are unsure.
