lump on neck spine family died from cancer can this be cancer?
hi… it is not probably a cancer dont worry… but are you sure it is bony attached to the skull? not a skin lump? are you sure it is not the vertebrae you are palpating as it might be painful if there is cervical muscle spasm.? does it has a different color? does you wife has any symptoms? is it a recent lump? if non of these is yes then it is likely nothing to worry about. it could be just a benign calcification.
