I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. If it is inside your throat then it may be granular pharyngitis or something like that.  If it is in neck region then you should go for fine needle aspiration cytology to check whether it is being lesioned or malignant.  Then you should take treatment accordingly. Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using Chat Doctor. Wish you a very good health. </s>
