I have had a lymph node on the side of my neck swollen for about 9 months...?


Issue
It is only the size of a pea, but it is the location that concerns me. It is right on the side of my neck. Not near a gland or anything, it does not hurt and I have not been sick at all. Because it has stayed fairly small, should I be concerned?

Best Tip
Why don't you wait a little longer????
You should have seen a doctor 8 months ago.

ew.go to a doctor
see a doctor u moron
that could be nothing or it could be serious... i forget what its called at the moment but its not good and it too has no symptoms for quite awhile... but anyways just have a doctor check it out to be safe... it might just be a fatty tumor or a cyst which are both harmless in most cases
all you can do is go to the doctor and ask.
Definitely see a doctor, it could be something very serious such as lymphoma.
I have one too. My doctor wanted to do a needle biopsy, but I was scared. She said that as long as it doesn't grow, it's fine.
but check it every once in a while. I noticed mine about 12 years ago and it's still the size of a pea. It's probably nothing, but with anything medical, you should always have it checked.
