Brief Answer:
Regarding white hair on neck.

Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome to ask a doctor service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Perhaps it is just a Vellus hair which are light coloured as compared to thicker and darker Terminal hairs normally seen on the beard region of males or it is a Terminal hair which has lost its pigment. I don't think it has anything to do with the nodule on right side of neck.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if you need any more assistance
