Hard, not mobile, lymph node near carotid pulse right side of neck. sometimes hurts. about the size of a gum ball. been there for at least 3 months. havent been sick. ent felt it today said its fine it may just stay that size. second opinion?

Get second opinion: If you are concerned about it get second opinion. It is small so probally alright but concerning if not mobile.Some doctors may be offended by second opion but I welcome it as none of us are perfect.The best option ask you current ENT to remove it and send it to pathology since near surface.
