Suggest Remedy For Lump In Neck
I have a lump on my neck for two weeks it is not painful nor has it changed in size since I noticed it. I have Rhumatoid and psriosis, the autoimmune disorders. I do not have insurance and do not take medicine for either disorder. Since I have these disorders I always feel run down and feverish so I can not really tell if there is a difference there. I guess my question is should I go to a free/low cost clinic or to the emergency room, which would be better suited to my needs since I have no insurance...

Welcome to Health care magic.
1.Its not an emergency you can go to the low cost clinic that will be fine.
2.The lumps with your history seems to me like lymph nodal enlargement, they usually gives that picture.
3.Generall enlargement seen after any local or systemic infection, which you are suffering at the moment.
4.So rather treating the lumps in the neck, treat the underlying causes.
5.An ultrasound examination of neck will give the exact nature of the lump, its source and extensions - good luck.
Hope it helps you. Wish you a good health.
Anything to ask ? do not hesitate. Thank you.
