What Causes A Hard Lump On The Neck?
hello. I woke up Sunday morning with a large bump on the right side of my neck. It is hard and tender. It resembles other large pimples I have had in the past that never come to the top of my skin, they stay blind for lack of a better word and then just shrink and disappear. Could this be the same thing or do I need to have it checked by a Dr?

I could be a tender lymphnode or an abcess. Just to be sure i guess u should go see your doctor. Perform a phusocal exam and do furgher tests if necessary
