Suggest Medication For Painful Lump On Right Side Of The Neck
Hi, my I just gave my 5year old son a haircut a week ago with a razor, by weekend he had developed a lump on his right side of a neck I m really woried it doesn t seem to be painful when I touch it though, but he had one he was born with close to that one and it never grow
Small firm swelling in neck, that freely moves under the skin is probably a lymph node. If it is small (diameter less than 1cm) and it is not painful or tender to touch, we need not worry now. We can evaluate further if it becomes painful or progressively increase in size.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
