I'm 39 now..the lump has been around for the past 29 years and has stayed the same. its technically called posterior cervical node...I'm suspecting T.B cause I've always been skinny all my life...apparently its symptom free...one doctor has suggested T.B he was a T.B specialist but I refused to take experimental medicine for the horror of antibiotic resistance and lac of others approval.
I have a 5 to 10 mm diameter lymph node on the right side of my neck facing shoulder, since the age of 10. it has remained the same all years long. Can this be a malignant one?
@bob02able how old are you now? i assume the lump was there for a long time already and it does not increase in size which indicate the likelihood of a benign swelling for example a dermoid cyst
nice vid mate, but you forgot pemberton's sign. get the patient to lift their arms above their head and watch for signs of SVC obstruction (a very large goitre can do this) ... you're looking for facial flushing and distended neck veins. but cheers, helpful for exam revision.
To any students watching, this would have been an automatic fail in an examination. Whilst he did a thorough examination and covered all the little things to earn extra points he broke the cardinal rule of examination of neck lumps. He did not LOOK IN THE MOUTH. The patient may have had a massive cancerous lesion that was totally missed!
good video,, it really helped me but i want to add elevation of shoulder (abduction) actively by the patient and passively by the physician and this is for 2 things: the 1st proximal weakness as u mentioned but 2nd discomfort or dypsnea on elevating hand above head which then would be called Pimberstan sign ( i am not sure about it is spelling).
well done boys when u tensed the muscles u examined the opposite sternocliedomastoid (the one not tensed)!

these are methods included in examination of the patient.

Sorry, no. I thought this was pretty good. Not all medical schools teach in the same way.
