I have a small lump on the right side of the back of my head (probably 2 or so inches to the left of the top of my right ear). It's relatively soft yet firm and is less than an inch in diameter. I'm in the middle of a bad bout of hypochondria (I've had brain cancer, MS, and an aneurysm among other things all in the last few months lol :roflmao:) and it's really bothering me. Does anyone have any idea what it could be?
I should mention it's painless and I first noticed it probably half a decade ago. It hasn't seemed to grow at all throughout my life but it's really bothering me now that my anxiety is really bad (I didn't have bad anxiety when I first found it)
I'm getting a puppy tomorrow, I'm trying to stay on top of school, and my anxiety is already generally pretty bad, and I really don't have the time or mental fortitude to deal with this thing stressing me out rn :weep:
I'm a fit 17 year old male with mild hypothyroidism (mother and grandma both have suspected Hashi) and nothing terminal or scary in particular runs in my family. Any ideas? Should I even bring this up with my doctor (during my next blood test/physical or something) or am I worrying too much?
