What Causes Lump On Left Side Of Neck?

Hi, I have just noticed my daughter has a lump on the left hand side of her neck - it looks like a lump and makes her look like she has double chin on one side only. I have touched it and it squashes. She looks uncomfortable when I touch it but says it does hurt. She is 28 months and has a lymphagoma under her arm

Hi,Dear,Good Afternoon and Thanks for the query to HCM.
I studied your query in details and understood your concerns.
@My impression of your left neck lump of your daughter-is as follows-
-Could be a ?Cystic Hygroma (Type of Lymphangioma and can occur with armpit replica)with in post.traingle with armpit lymphangioma- which may be its replica
-These are genetic malformations of the lymphatic tissue with microcystic sacs, getting infected and causing tender lump on left side of neck
I would advise -
a-Consult ER Surgeon who would check and fix its diagnosis.
This would help you to plan treatment with your doctor.
