What Causes Does A Lump On The Neck?
I am a 58 year old male and just noticed this afternoon that I have swelling in my neck. Its about the diameter of a baseball only oval in shape. It starts behind my left ear and runs down about 3 inches. It also appears to have grown some in the last 2-3 hours.

Hi,
If it is growing so rapidly it could be infectious and you should get it checked up immediately.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
