Neck Lumps & Swellings

Gardan Mein Gaanth · Cervical Lymphadenopathy · Neck Mass Patna

A lump or swelling in the neck is one of the most common reasons patients visit our Raja Bazar ENT clinic. The majority of neck lumps are reactive lymph nodes — enlarged due to a nearby infection such as tonsillitis, dental infection, or ear infection — and resolve once the primary infection is treated. However, a neck lump that persists for more than 2 weeks, is painless, progressively growing, hard, or accompanied by voice change, swallowing difficulty, or weight loss requires urgent evaluation. Neck lumps can also arise from the thyroid gland, salivary glands, congenital cysts (branchial or thyroglossal), or — importantly — lymphoma or metastatic cancer from a primary site in the head and neck. Dr. Abhinandan performs thorough clinical examination and arranges appropriate investigations including ultrasound and FNAC (fine needle aspiration cytology) for accurate diagnosis.

Symptoms

  • Visible or palpable lump anywhere in the neck
  • Swelling at the front, side, or back of neck
  • Painless lump persisting more than 2 weeks
  • Lump that is growing in size over weeks
  • Multiple lumps on one or both sides of neck
  • Neck swelling with fever and night sweats

When to Visit

  • Neck lump persisting more than 2 weeks — urgent
  • Painless, hard, or fixed lump in neck
  • Lump with hoarseness or swallowing difficulty

The thyroid gland is a butterfly-shaped gland at the base of the front of the neck. Enlargement of the thyroid — called a goitre — can be diffuse (the whole gland is enlarged) or nodular (one or more lumps within the gland). Common causes in Patna include iodine deficiency, Hashimoto's thyroiditis (autoimmune), multinodular goitre, thyroid adenoma, or thyroid cancer — which, if detected early, has excellent treatment outcomes. Patients with thyroid swelling may also experience compression symptoms such as difficulty swallowing (dysphagia), breathing difficulty, or voice change (hoarseness) when the enlarged gland presses on nearby structures. Dr. Abhinandan evaluates thyroid swellings clinically and coordinates thyroid function tests, ultrasound, and FNAC before recommending medical or surgical management.

Symptoms

  • Visible swelling at the base of the front of neck
  • Lump that moves up and down on swallowing
  • Difficulty swallowing solids (compression)
  • Hoarse or changed voice
  • Neck tightness or pressure sensation
  • Breathlessness when lying flat

When to Visit

  • Any new or growing neck swelling at front of neck
  • Thyroid swelling with hoarse voice
  • Thyroid swelling with swallowing difficulty
  • Rapidly growing thyroid nodule
  • Family history of thyroid cancer
  • Previously diagnosed thyroid problem with new symptoms

Vertigo is the false sensation that you — or the world around you — is spinning or moving. It is a common complaint at our Raja Bazar ENT clinic, and is distinct from simple lightheadedness or faintness. The most common cause is BPPV (Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo) — caused by displaced calcium crystals in the inner ear. BPPV produces brief but intense spinning episodes triggered by head movements such as lying down, turning in bed, or tilting the head. The good news: BPPV responds excellently to the Epley's repositioning manoeuvre — a non-surgical, non-medication technique that provides immediate relief in most cases. Other causes of vertigo include Meniere's disease, labyrinthitis, vestibular neuritis, and migraine-associated vertigo. Dr. Abhinandan evaluates each case thoroughly to identify the cause and provide targeted, effective treatment.

Symptoms

  • Sudden spinning sensation triggered by head movement
  • Nausea and vomiting with dizziness
  • Unsteadiness and imbalance while walking
  • Ear fullness or ringing (in Meniere's disease)
  • Dizziness lasting seconds (BPPV) or minutes to hours
  • Tendency to fall to one side

When to Visit

  • Spinning dizziness recurring over days or weeks
  • Vertigo with sudden hearing loss — urgent
  • Dizziness with severe headache or double vision
  • Falls due to balance problems
  • Vertigo not responding to self-care
  • Dizziness in elderly affecting daily activities

Speech therapy at D.N.A. Advanced ENT Clinic, Raja Bazar, Patna is provided by trained therapists under the supervision of Dr. Abhinandan. It addresses a wide spectrum of communication disorders — from stammering and stuttering (haklana) and unclear articulation (tutlana) to voice disorders, delayed speech in children, and post-surgical vocal rehabilitation. Speech disorders significantly affect confidence, academic performance, and social interactions — and are far more treatable than most patients believe. Structured therapy sessions focus on fluency techniques, breathing control, articulation training, and voice strengthening. Most patients with mild-to-moderate stammering show measurable improvement within 3–6 sessions. For children, early intervention is key — speech delays and articulation problems are best addressed before school age.

Who Needs Speech Therapy

  • Stammering or stuttering in children or adults
  • Unclear or difficult-to-understand speech
  • Child not speaking clearly by age 3–4
  • Voice disorders — weak, breathy, or strained voice
  • Speech difficulty after stroke or brain injury
  • Swallowing difficulty (dysphagia) in elderly

When to Seek Help

  • Child with significant speech delay at any age
  • Stammering affecting school performance or confidence
  • Unclear speech not improving naturally
  • Voice change affecting professional communication
  • Speech difficulty after throat surgery
  • Any speech concern in child under 5

D.N.A. Advanced ENT Clinic at Raja Bazar, Patna is equipped with surgical-grade microscopes and rigid/flexible endoscopes for comprehensive ENT diagnosis — far beyond what a standard clinical otoscope can offer. Microscopic ear examination provides a magnified, illuminated view of the entire ear canal, eardrum, and middle ear structures — enabling precise diagnosis of perforated eardrum, CSOM, cholesteatoma, and ear wax impaction. Nasal endoscopy allows direct visualisation of the nasal passage, sinus openings, nasopharynx, and upper throat — essential for diagnosing sinusitis, nasal polyps, adenoid enlargement, and nasopharyngeal lesions. Laryngoscopy (throat endoscopy) visualises the vocal cords, hypopharynx, and epiglottis — critical for evaluating hoarseness, throat lumps, and swallowing disorders. These advanced diagnostic tools ensure that every treatment recommendation is based on accurate, direct observation — not guesswork.

When Endoscopy is Needed

  • Chronic ear discharge or hearing loss
  • Persistent nasal blockage or sinus symptoms
  • Hoarseness or voice change
  • Swallowing difficulty or throat lump sensation
  • Suspected nasal polyps or adenoid enlargement
  • Pre-operative assessment for ENT surgery

Procedures Available

  • Microscopic ear examination — painless
  • Rigid nasal endoscopy
  • Flexible nasopharyngoscopy
  • Indirect and direct laryngoscopy
  • Audiometry and tympanometry
