I have a grape size hard lump on the side of my neck. What could it be

[DreamStar17]

I have the same thing. For you it might just be a swollen lymph node which is common. Oval-shaped organs that contain immune cells to attack and kill foreign invaders, such as viruses. They are an important part of the body’s immune system.Lymph nodes are found in various parts of the body, including the neck, armpits, and groin. They are linked by lymphatic vessels, which carry lymph (a clear fluid containing white blood cells) and dead and diseased tissue for disposal) throughout the body. The primary function of lymph nodes is to harbor the body’s disease-fighting cells.

When you are sick and your lymph nodes send out disease-fighting cells and compounds, they may become inflamed or painful. But you should still make a trip to see your doctor to know for sure.

Hi,

Due to the nature of the internet and the fact that there are NO Medical Doctors here that are willing to diagnose (See HUGE Liability issues), it is utterly impossible to say what it could be or what it is. That should be done with a local Medical Professional, anything could be dangerous speculation.
