Hi there! You know, there could be some lumps in the neck that are not caused by swollen glands. There are quite many things that can provoke these lumps like a growth of the thyroid gland ( they are usually not dangerous but a small number can be cancerous ), then a sebaceous gland cyst, or just a skin cyst, allergic reaction if you’ve been taking some medicines, a benign or cancerous tumor, lipoma ( overgrowth of fat cells ), as well as the salivary gland inflammation, or salivary stones. As you can see, there could be many things. These other doctors…did you just rang them, or have been examined by them as well. How many examinations did you have? With just one doctor’s orders or you asked for 2nd opinion as well.
Do you still have those earaches and headaches? |
