What is the definition or description of: neck mass?
2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
A lump in the body: Think of a mass in the body as a lump. It could be something benign (not cancer) or it could be a cancer in some cases. Some lumps, such a lump of fatty tissue, can be left alone. Other lumps, especially if they are growing, will need evaluation with an x-ray, ultrasound, or scan. In some cases, a biopsy may be needed.
