A member asked:
Had an ultrasound on small lump on neck today, since the probe pressed on it my lump is smaller, like it pushed it in. what could it be?

Node, cyst or others: A small lump on the neck usually is a lymph node, a small sebaceous cyst or a lipoma, although it could be something else. Did the ultrasound show what it was? It is uncommon for the ultrasound to make it smaller.
