Could a growing neck lump over 2 years be concerning?

Lump on the back of neck, has grown in size over 2 years

1 Answer

Answered on 4th June '24

This could be a cyst or a lipoma (a harmless fatty growth), among other things. If you feel pain, notice changes in skin color around it, or find that it grows rapidly please see a dermatologist immediately for necessary investigations. You may have to undergo biopsy or surgery for removal depending on the doctor's recommendations to secure your health.

Hello, I have redness on my nose, I would like to get rid of it, as its not the same colour and it looks ugly. I kinda know why its red. I had erythema multiforme, after someone drank from my water bottle and i got herpes simplex, i had red dots on my hand, knees, elbows, and one on my nosebridge now its gone, but ever since i have a discolored nose. The top where it connects to the forehead is white and below its a red colour, what can I do to get back the original colour of my nose, is there any medication that can help?

Male | 21

That redness on your nose might be­ leftover swelling. Don't worry though, with some­ gentle TLC, it should fade. Be­ sure to moisturize and use mild products. Staying out of harsh sunlight (and SPF!) will also ke­ep discoloration away. It may take time, but your skin will he­al.

Hello.. i am priti.2 day ago cat bite me.but not bleeding only two min. Burning and red dot and morning no dot .what should i do.

Female | 30

From what you are telling me, a cat must have bitten you. And even though it didn't bleed, you saw a burning sensation and a red dot after the event. This is a possible result of bacteria from the cat's mouth. It is important to wash the area with soap and water. Check for any swelling, pain, or redness. If you see anything out of the ordinary, don't hesitate to see a doctor.

Male | 37

Permanent hair removal on chest is possible . Laser therapy is the best option.. It works by targeting hair roots with heat... Results are long-lasting.. Few side effects like redness and swelling may occur. Multiple sessions may be required. Maintenance sessions may be necessary. Consult a dermatologist for the best treatment plan.

I am 31 year old female from lucknow ,i want to know about skin melanin treatment surgery for skin lightening and whitening ,is this is good for skin in future or in my 60’s ,,i have dry combination skin Please suggest

Female | 31

Skin melanin treatment surgery can be harmful in the long run so I suggest not to go for it. You can try other treatments like chemical peels or dermabrasion instead. These treatments can help lighten the skin and are not harmful in the long run. Also using moisturizer and sunscreen can help.

I am 33 years old .I am suffering from PCOD & now I am facing hair fall problem in badly .can you help me to grow new hair

Female | 33

PCOD can trigger the hormonal imbalance which in turn causes hair loss. Some signs are irregular menstruation and acne. To promote new hair growth, you can try consuming a balanced diet full of fruits and vegetables, controlling stress, and keeping a normal weight. You may talk to your doctor about possible therapies for hair growth as well.
