Suggest Treatment For Soreness In The Neck

I had neck sorenses from what I thought was sleeping wrong. A few days later I noticed what feels like a nickel sized knot on the left side of my neck. It s about an inch & a half under my ear. It doesn t hurt unless pressure is put on it & has the same feeling as if you press or put pressure on a muscle knot. Should I be worried?

Orthopaedic Surgeon,  's  Response
Hello,Thanks for your query.After going through your query I came to know that you are suffering from muscular pain. It is caused by wrong sleeping.Treatment of it is rest and analgesics (diclofenac three times a day after meals). Muscle relaxant such as thiocolchicoside can be added Vitamin B-complex and Vitamin C supplementation can used to promote healing. You are worried about a knot in neck which is only painful when you press it. You need not to worry much as it can be normal lymph node or lipoma. Keep a watch over over it if it enlarge then its biopsy can be one. You can discuss with your treating Doctor about it.I do hope that you have found something helpful and I will be glad to answer any further query. Take care.
