No it hasn't gotten bigger. It is smaller than a pea. But my health anxiety has creeped up on me again and I'm worried about everything I find.
Brief Answer:
7 years of stationary lump need not be worried about.
Detailed Answer:
Thanks for your feedback.
To repeat, if it is not changed over 7 years and if there are no symptoms there is no need to worry about.
This can be a organized old cyst or a granuloma.

Thanks doctor I'm just such a worrier. I'm making my neck sore by touching it.
Brief Answer:
I can understand the anxiety you have.
Detailed Answer:
Hi. Just relax.
To make the things certain for sure, you may please consult your Doctor for clinical evaluation and an actual examination.
This may help you to get a proper diagnosis and to relax further.
Do not be worries, as I said 7 years of unchanged lump may not be worried.
Take care.
Please give me feedback.
