Suggest Treatment For Hard Sold Lump On My Neck

I have a hard sold lump of about 3/4" in diameter which is located on the right side of my neck that was diagnosed as a ligament calcification. Now there is another one that is now growing at about 1/4" on my spine about 4" from the base of my head. They are becoming painful when I move my neck. What should I do, and is the diagnosis correct?

General Surgeon 's  Response
Hi.
Ligament calcification is a perfect diagnosis, if diagnosed by X-ray or any scan / ultrasonography. The same modality of test will help in diagnosing the another one.
The best way is to get the disease excised/ removed.
This will give you a permanent relief as no medicines will help you.
And the diagnosis is confirmed.
I find this answer helpful
