What Are Neck Abnormalities?
Neck abnormalities refer to any irregular swelling, mass, cyst, or deformity in the neck region. These can be soft or firm, painless or tender, and may appear gradually or suddenly. Many of these are benign, but some may need surgical correction for complete resolution.
Common Types of Neck Abnormalities
Thyroglossal Duct Cyst – Midline neck swelling that moves with swallowing or tongue movement.
Branchial Cleft Cyst/Sinus – Lateral neck swelling or tract that may become infected.
Cystic Hygroma – Fluid-filled soft swelling due to abnormal lymphatic development.
Dermoid Cyst – Firm, usually painless lump containing skin tissues.
Congenital Muscular Torticollis – Tight neck muscle causing head tilt.
Hemangioma – Red or bluish vascular lesion that may grow with time.
Enlarged Lymph Nodes – Often due to infections, tuberculosis, or, rarely, malignancy.
