What Could A Chronic Painful Lump On Neck Indicate?

i am 44 and feel a lump on right side of neck. shown to couple of doctors. they said it is due to tonsils and gave me antibiotic. the other said it is the swollen neck muscle. but in either case it is still there from last two months and irritates and redens my right eye when i wake in the morning.

Hi dear thanks for the query on HCM

Here you need to visit a doctor and ask for an ultrasound neck to check whether the lump has fluid or solid. Look for other non pqlpqble lumps if any.
You need to ask for Fnac of the swelling which will give you a pathological diagnosis which will decide the treatment.
All the speculation s will be cleared by fnac
Get a blood test done as a complimentary for your diagnosis.
