Welcome to health care magic.
1.History suggest that there is cancer / malignancy.
2.The neck lumps are enlarged lymph nodes. The lymph nodal enlargement is seen in case of any infection / inflammation / malignancies.
3.Since its confirmed that there is malignancy else where in the body.
4.Now you have to do a through investigation to find out the primary lesion.
5.Get a CT computer tomography of Chest and Abdomen pelvis ( this will helps us to identify the primary and any metastasis in the chest,liver and abdomen / peritoneum and abdominal lymph nodal status. that will help to go in right way of treatment and followup. Good luck.
Hope i have answered your query.
Any thing to ask do not hesitate. Thank you.
