Lump on neck: May be lymph nodes. Do you have a sore throat? post nasal drip/ Runny Nose? ear discomfort? All those could cause a swollen neck lymph node( younger children have constant nodes). May also be mononucleosis . or mass. F/u with doc , If not better in 1 month usually get biopsy ,but likely will improve.
