What Causes Bump On Neck?
Hello I am a 34 year old female and recently I found a bump on the left side of my neck right above the collar bone. I have been coughing for 10 days but I don t have a fever. The cough is very annoying- I feel that I can t breath and I have a strange pressure in my chest. ( if my explanation makes any sense)..Any ideas? Thank you in advance!

Good day and thanks for your question. Your explanation do make sense. Bump on the left side of the neck and cough of 10 days should be something you should be worried about. I suggest you visit your doctor right away for proper investigations. Tests would likely include Chest X-ray, Sputum culture and sensitivity, Sputum acid fast bacilli, a full blood work up and an Endoscopy. Hope it helps.
Thank you.
Thank you.
