A member asked:

Can a neck mass found 2 months after a car accident be related to the accident?

5 doctors weighed in across 2 answers

No: It is better to assume that this neck mass is unrelated to the accident. You should have this checked by your physician or an ENT to determine if further work-up is needed.
