What Causes A Large Lump On Left Side Bottom Of Neck In A 5 Year Old?
My 5 year old has a lump in what looks to be a vein on the left side of his neck half way between the bottom of his ear and the base of his neck. It used to only be visible when he cried or was very active, but now it has grown to the size of a grown person s pinkie nail and it is visible all the time. Should I be concerned?
