How Can A Neck Vein Lump Be Treated?

My 5-year-old daughter has a lump in the vein in her neck. It sort of rolls when you push it, and she does have a head cold right now. We are going to the doctor for a check up in a week -- do you think it can wait till then, or could it be more serious?

Hi,
It seems that there might be having enlarged neck lymph node producing lump.
This can be due to upper respiratory tract infection which now she is having.
You can wait till you consult your doctor.
Go for treatment for cold with decongestant syrup.
Ok and take care.
