What is a lump on left side of neck?

Answer:

A normal healthy person, should not have a lump on the side of his neck. Can you be more specific about yoursymptoms and what it looks like? When did you discover it, what were you doing at the time of discovery? How long has it been there? Is it move-able or fixed? Is there discoloration? Is there pain? Has it changed in appearance or size over time? Do you have any underlying medical conditions? What types of medications do you take?
