Welcome to Chat Doctor .1. It could be a muscle as your doctor said.2. Possibilities of lymph nodal enlargement can not be ruled out.3. I would recommend getting an ultrasound neck none to evaluate the nature of the lump, its source, nature and extensions.4. Lymph nodal enlargement is seen after any infection / inflammation local or systemic.5.Vascular cause also one of the possibilities - gets scan for confirmation. Good luck Hope it helps you. Wish you a good health. Anything to ask ? Do not hesitate. Thank you.
