Neck Lumps

Most neck lumps are benign and include lumps in the parotid and submandibular salivary glands, thyroid gland as well as lymph nodes in the neck. Occasionally a lump in the neck may be cancerous. All patients require a thorough history and examination and usually an endoscopic examination of the lining of the nose and throat. In addition, a needle sample of the neck lump may be required.
