[|Human|] I have a bump on the left size of my neck, it appears to be in the same location as before from about a week ago. I dont see a head to it because Ive been trying to pop it. Its behind my ear and close to my hair line. Im just worried that it could be cancer because I used to use smokless tobacco
[|AI|]  Hi! Good morning. I am Chat Doctor answering your query. Even though it is good to be concerned about ones own health, one should not become frightened or obsessive on cancer for a growth of one week duration only without a clinical examination by doctor, and the related investigations if any. Therefore, I would advise you to get your self examined by your family physician, who after a general examination, might put you on a short course of broad spectrum antibiotic and anti-inflammatory Chat Doctor.  If it was an inflammatory lymph node, the swelling might subside. Otherwise, you might have to take appointment with a general surgeon in your area to get your self assessed and managed properly. I hope this information would help you in discussing with your family physician/treating doctor in further management of your problem. Please do not hesitate to ask in case of any further doubts. Thanks for choosing Chat Doctor to clear doubts on your health problems. Wishing you an early recovery. Chat Doctor
