hard lump on side of neck

[BrothaBill]

uh oh wait what was that part about not much drinking

Yeah, statistically if you drink alot and especially smoke together with it. You are more likely to get those "bad" lumps. Not sure about the lumps from sharing drinks with strippahs

That's only if they have good insurance. You can "lower" the volume of a benign cyst with a needle then see if it grows afterwards. Depends on the cause of the cyst, sometimes it can be just some cause and fluid grows a sac around it and grows. Clean and sterilize the skin, 19 gauge needle inserted until it bursts the membrane, put it in the center, reverse pressure and draw interior contents til the cyst is to an acceptable level.
Send the contents to the lab for analysis.
If it as sometimes returns to size then again drain it. Refer to a specialist depending on based on the area of the lump.
lol, how many referrals do you think that an Eye, ears and throat specialist gets froms a swollen lymph node? lol

They have researched swollen neck one stop clinics to just feel the lymph nodes as an opportunity to allow the patient to relax

That's what happened to me. A lump of liquid developed. They had to drain it with a needle. OMG, I watched the whole thing. Then they cut me open and got all the hard stuff out. Then they stuffed the wound with this medicated gauze; I had to pull 1 inch out every day with tweezers and then rebandage it.

LOL!! fuck that.. that is the worst!!!! Get a PPO with low or no copays. Make sure they have a high end network, and low fees if you go out of network.

and nycgirl .. that sounds nasty!
