What Causes Swelling At The Top Of Neck In Hairline?
my husband had a swelling at the top of his neck in his hair line. It appeared following a nasel infectionand a migrane attack. His doctor suggested it was a cyst and to have it removed. Today however it has gone down considerably and I don t think it is a cyst but a Lymph Node - what do you think?
I read carefully your query and understand your concern.
The symptoms of your hudh can be related to a reactive lymph node. The lymph node can get enlarged due to an infection in the system. After the infection is treated the lymph node go away on its own gradually.
Hope my answer was helpful.
If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.
Kind regards!
