What Is The Movable Lump Under My Jaw?
Hi, i have a slight spinal compression on my C5 and C6 and after seeing the chiropractor who twisted my neck each time i see her, i started to experience more salivation. I also notice that i have a small lump (movable) right under my jaw on the upper side portion of my left neck. I am now not sure if my un normal salivation is due to the spinal compression or the lump. Can you advise?

Hi, dear.
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. You may have some salivary glamd lesion like siledenitis or some tumour pathology. Or you may have some enlarged lymphnode.
You should go for biopsy of that lump.
Then you should take treatment accordingly.
Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
