Q: Pain With Soft Lump

asked by: pam_holley on April 5th, 2006

I have a dime size lump in between my collar bone and side of the neck on my left side. It fels like a crick in my neck and shoots our pain when I turn or touch that area. I lift weights often but have not done anything strenuous lately. Should I have it checked right away? What could it be? When I turn my head to the left I get that sharp pain. I have had these symtons for 3 days now.

You may have pulled a muscle and not even known it. This has happened to me. I just woke up one morn and could barely move my neck. I never felt a bump...But I never tried to feel for one either. I would suggest seeing your doctor. Especially if you're in pain.

Hope everything's okay :)

I think there are lymph nodes there. But I can't be sure. I know that they will hurt if infected.
