Usually Benign: I think almost every kid I have seen long term has had a murmur at some point.Murmur just means an extra sound, usually vibration from blood flow. It can amplify with fever or even be normal flow in veins of the neck.If at a typical location & of usual quality ur doc may just list it in the chart & assess it at future visits.If it had greater meaning u should have been informed at the time.
