A member asked:
So basically the lump on my left side of neck is like 1 cm or a little bigger ,that means i have cancer ? its been there for months and is moveable

Probably not cancer: If the neck lump has changed little in one year and is still just over 1 cm, it is probably just a benign(non-malignant) lymph node or a small cyst or lipoma. However, you should have it examined by a medical profession for their opinion.
