⚪ Lipoma
A benign fat mass develops between the skin and the muscle. It is usually soft, about 5 cm, but can grow. It sometimes causes discomfort if it compresses the nerves.
🧩 Enlarged lymph nodes
Lymph nodes are part of the immune system and can enlarge in the event of infections such as tonsillitis, measles, ear infections, dental abscesses, mononucleosis, skin infections, and HIV.
They usually regress after healing, but if they remain hard and still, it could be a sign of lymphoma.
Conclusion
Skin lumps can have many causes, ranging from completely harmless to more serious conditions. It is important not to jump to conclusions and, if in doubt, always consult a healthcare professional.
