Hey everyone,
I‘ve been suffering from HA since last year around this time.
25 year old guy here and for over a month, I’ve been in fear of a weird lump/lymph node on the side of my neck that I discovered randomly by massing my neck. It’s located in the area near my ear and side of jaw on the right in the crevice between both. It feels kind of firm and also it feels like it could be stuck to another muscle or something. Size is a pea and what scares me the most is that I could see it when I push skin on the side of my face up to the bone in my jaw. You can kind of also see it when I bend my neck in the light too. I DID go to a doc about it who brushed it off and told me there’s nothing to worry about and to keep checking on it just in case. She even said it’s too small/not worrisome enough to do a biopsy. However I guess I was expecting to at least get an ultrasound out of that appointment but with everything going on in the world I guess it wasn’t on the list. I do have a general physical next month but I just find myself worrying each day in fear that it’ll randomly get huge on me to wear I can see it without effort to. I don’t seem to have any other symptoms but just this lump. Has anyone ever had anything like this? I would love some insight on this.
Thank you!
