[|Human|] I have a largish lump on the right side of the neck. The right side of my neck seems a little larger compared to the left. The lump is more visible when i turn to the left side. For a few weeks i have felt a strange kind of pressure on my throat on the right side. I am 45 years old and in generally good health. I have been experiencing bad headaches over the last few days. I have a history of nephritis. I weigh around nine stone and am 5foot 4inches.
[|AI|]  Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. In my opinion, you should consult doctor and get done 1. Clinical examination of neck 2. Ultrasound examination of neck. Following are the possible causes for your right sided neck swelling. 1. Enlarged lymph node 2. Lesion in superior vent cave or right carotid artery. 3. Hematoma in muscle (right sided sternocleidomastoid). So better to get done ultrasound examination of neck. Possibility of lymph node enlargement is more. If so, then you may need fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) for the diagnosis and treatment.
