I've been feeling this bruising pain under my chin for a couple of days and now there's a lump there that's hard and doesn't move. It feels like it's attached to my chin bone and is around 15 cm long. I'm also experiencing some pain under my left ear, but I haven't noticed any lump there. Should I be concerned about this? What could it possibly be?

I've been experiencing some swelling and pain in the right side of my neck for about a month now. I got an FNAC test done, but I'm struggling to understand the results. Could you help me figure out what's going on with my lymph node? I'm getting a bit worried.

kindly refer to a surgeon

My 5-year-old daughter has adenoid hypertrophy measuring 2.4x2.2 cm and keeps getting frequent colds and coughs. The doctor recommended surgery but I'm worried can this be treated with medicines instead? I'd like to avoid surgery if possible, what are our options?

If she is getting symptoms like mouth breathing and snoring, recurrent ear infection, it's better to go for surgery adenoidectomy.
