1] show it to your mom
2] make a doctor's appointment
The odds of it being bad are pretty small, but MUCH better safe than sorry.

It sounds serious enough to consult a medical physician. It might be nothing, but it is best to let a medical professional run some tests. Tell your parents and ask them to go with you to the doctor.

The best thing to do is see a Dr. It could be something harmless but it needs checked immediately. God Bless!

better to have it checked by a professional rather than jump to conclusions on as to what it is... esp. since it is located near ur neck/back.... better to be safe.... and scientifically sure than to be sorry afterwards...

It might be a rising or a boil.If it is, then it will start to hurt. You can put hot water on it.
