What Is The Treatment For Hard, Immovable, Painless Lump Under Neck?

The kind of lump that you have over your neck surely needs further assessment by a doctor. It can be either a swollen lymph node or it can be a swollen salivary gland. In either case, the lesion has to be examined a doctor so as to reach a final diagnosis. Hope you are not having any oral infections or dental caries or a sore throat . Any such infections of the face and neck can lead to swollen nodes in the neck. See a nearby doctor as soon as possible.
