My 5 years old son has got a tender small lump on the left side of his neck that moves when we touch it. Mantoux test is negative. Doctors said that it will disappear by its own. But after many months it still prevails. please suggest something.

I am sorry to hear about your concern but will be happy to assist you. The most common lumps or swellings are enlarged lymph nodes. These can be caused by bacterial or viral infections, cancer (malignancy), or other rare causes. Swollen salivary glands under the jaw may be caused by infection or cancer. Lumps in the muscles of the neck are caused by injury or torticollis. Let's connect over a call so that we can discuss your concern in details and make a suitable treatment plan for you.
