Should I Be Worried About The Pain Developed In The Lump On Neck?

I have a guilt (some hard portion) on the back side of my neck for the past 15 to 20 years or probably since birth. I can feel it with hands. Lately i am having pain in that area by pressing the same portion. Please tell me what it could be. Can it be a serious problem

Sir/Madam!
Your lump on the nape is probably either a dermoid cyst or a lipoma.None of the two is a serious problem, both are curable by a simple surgery. You can make a trip to me for the same.
