my son showed me a lump on his neck tonight
it is round and hard and moves, he says when i feel it it hurts a little....
it is sat. i can't talk to a doc until tues.....my husband isn't home to hear me and comfort my worries......
maybe i am over reacting, but maybe not! i am freaking out...

Re: i am freaking out
Sat, May 24, 2008 - 9:43 PMDon't freak! My son had a lump and it was a tight muscle thingy- totally normal for growing kids, so it could be just that. But do get it checked just in case!!! -

Re: i am freaking out
Sun, May 25, 2008 - 7:58 AMcould be a swollen lymph node... just a sign that his immune system is working hard to fight something off.... is he feeling sick in any way?
some children's echinacea might be good? at least for peace of mind and to boost his immune system. -
