Dear doctor my daughter, who is 20, has just discovered a lump the size of a chocolate peanut next to her tonsils. very worried ?

Check in with her MD: Could be any number of things. Best course of action would be to check in with her doctor who can perform a full history and physical exam, and then decide on any other diagnostic tests that might prove useful. Good luck.
