Lump on neck in 3 year old
Lump on neck in 3 year old
I just found a lump on my 3 year olds neck. It’s soft and moveable and doesn’t seem to bother him. I will be making an appt first thing in the am but jeez he can’t catch a break!! He’s been to 3 different drs within the past 2 weeks!! All 3 being related to ear infections. It’s freaking me out because it just showed up out of nowhere!! I just noticed it just now!! He saw an ent today ffs!! He did palpate his neck but my son was all scrunched up as he’s not that great at dr appts!! I just hope it’s nothing serious

Swollen lymph node maybe?

It could be a swollen lymph node due to the ear infections

Ugh I know but it’s only one side!!! The ent today said his ears looked ok. He has tubes in place the left side is working still but it’s in its way out, which is normal as it’s been a year since surgery, but his right ear was the problem the 2nd infection then he wouldn’t take 2 different meds. So that’s why he was at the ent today. He said the right ear tube is a little blocked but doesn’t see any fluid or infection!! Ugh u guys have no idea how busy and crazy the last 2 weeks have been at my house!! I have my oldest son being treated for an ear infection not too. With him in OT twice a week we’ve been run ragged the last few weeks!! I know I have to take him tomorrow. I was looking forward to a nice relaxing morning because we finally have nothing to do until 2pm OT for my 5 year old!! Now we will be headed to the drs!! Ugh sorry I’m just venting at this point!!

It feels like a lipoma. A soft moveable lump!! I’m freaking exhausted from taking my kids to the drs already!! Ugh why does everything happen at once all the time. I feel awful for my little guy!!
