While cervical lymphadenopathy in adults is relatively common, any patient presenting with a persistent neck lump should be considered to have cancer until proven otherwise.

She will outline the most appropriate investigations of these lumps — whether they are lymph nodes, salivary gland masses, or thyroid nodules.
