A member asked:
I noticed a small soft non tender lump on the neck of my hubby only in mornings when he was lying on bed as soon as he get up it disappears.what it is
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Lump on neck: There are various glands, lymph nodes, and muscles in specific places along the front and sides of the neck. It can be any one of those - and it's more prominent when lying down because of how gravity is affecting the skin and subcutaneous tissues. It's impossible to know what it is without an exam, however.
