[|Human|] i have a lump on back of lower neck feels like on trapezoid muscle size of marble approx 1cm or smaller, round and somewhat firm although my doc said it feels totally benign and prob a small node swollen. I had CBC w diff, Hepatic function, electropheresis, sed rate and complete metabolic panel testing all were normal. My concern is it is lymphoma and they are missing it....I noticed it two weeks ago. Thoughts....Would these blood tests be normal and could I still have cancer?
[|AI|]  Welcome to Chat Doctor I am Chat Doctor and I will be helping you with your query have gone through your question. It appears to be enlarged lymph node in the cervical region. Lymph node enlarges in response to infection in the head and neck region. Chances of lymphoma is rare as the duration is short, and single lymph node is involved. In lymphoma there are additional symptoms like weight loss, lethargy. If it bothers you much, lymph node biopsy followed by its histopathology, which will give a clear-cut diagnosis. I hope that my answer will help you. Do rate it, if you like it. Regards
