throat cyst(atleast i think...please help me)

Ok so I dont know if i should be posting this here or whats a good site to be posting this but I need opinions. This past weekend when i was on vacation at the beach... I noticed this bump directly underneath my chin...its like attached to my chin. If you run your finger on your jaw line and feel under the tip or your chin.. if I am explaining it right. Well most people would have nothing there...and can push to feel their throat. but i have a noticible bump thats under my skin. It did not brake through my skin at all... its just under my skin. It's about the size of small bouncy ball, a bit smaller though. It almost feels like it might be attached to my jaw/growing off it...not sure if its on my throat or what but its most definitly in my upper neck/jaw. It hurts when i lean my head back really far because the "cyst"(if it even is a cyst) pushes against my skin....the more i lean my head back the more noticible it is right by my jaw. It feels hard to me.. but i never felt anything else to compare it to. It must have formed within the past 2 weeks or so because I honestly noticed it midweek last week, but just thought i bumped my chin. I most definitly would of noticed it when i was shaving a long time ago, so it had to of formed recently. I apologize for rambling on and my grammar but I am panicing... I just came back from vacation this morning and made an opointment with my doctor but that isnt until Thursday....my parents think its a cyst or maybe I have an infection in my jaw/mouth(not sure if thats even possible). It's just the thought of it being cancer or a tumor freaks me out.....I need opinions on what it might be....any opinions positive or negative is appreciated.... thank you.

btw not sure if it matters or not but I am 19 yrs old.

my last illness...I honestly cant even remember because its been that long ago.

I had stomache cramps really bad about a week ago but they went away...nothing serious. I was fighting with my girlfriend but thats the only thing I can think of that would stress me out.

I have no white spots under or on my fingernails.

I was never prescribed anything...except from the psychologist I used to go to but those were only test samples.. and were never recorded on my record. Plus I only took them for about a week. They were for depression but that was about 2 years ago.

As far as drugs go, I tried marijuana about 3 years go. NEVER did anything else except last summer when i was heavy into lifting I used some anabolic steroids. I took dianabol(d-bol) and Test. Enanthate. If i spelled it correctly. But that was over a year ago already. I never touched the stuff or any lifting suppliment since.

I do not smoke
I do not drink

I have no skin ailments

I'm about 135-140lbs

I'm 5'10/5'11

I honestly have not been very active since last summer because I saw how it was ruining my life. I became "drug free" from everything and anything for over a year now. I sort of became a computer geek and computers became my hobby along with my girlfriend. I havnt been doing much physical activity for the past few months. But I'm FIT and skinny.

anyways... reply asap.. thank you so much.

what symptomology and circumstances concerning "depression" 2 years ago?
 
John Stanton last decade
not sure exactly what you mean but it was just for feeling active.... so I would want to go out and not sit inside... it was to change my "hate the world" attitude. minor stuff... was just a rough time in my life.

the color of my hair used to be dirty blonde but after i kept shaving my head with an electric razor it turned brown. its really short so my hair really has no conidtion... I did/do get some dandruff when i let my hair grow.

I have no eye or vision problems.

No hearing problems

as in rough time in life .. i mean like... just emotionally... i was letting everything bother me when i was in highschool....depression kind of runs in my fathers side of the family. But i've been ok since my appoinments with my pyschologist.. but its nothing to major. I think everyone gets that way once in awhile in their life time.

I never had any veneral diseases though I am sexually active with my girlfriend(oral also). do you think that could of effected me?...anyways..


I have 1 birthmark or mole... its located on my left cheek which i had from birth. its not growing outward or growing at all... but its about as round as a pea....i wouldnt say a dime.... because thats kinda to big. heh

There are no other conidtions. I didnt even notice the lump till a week ago but even then i thought I just bumped my chin. until this past weekend on my vacation which is when I noticed it was still there. It doesnt even really hurt. It does not effect my swallowing or anything like that. I had 1 headache within this week but it was from not eating all day. If i push on it hard enough it hurts a little bit. Besides the the lump on my throat... I feel fine and perfectly heathly... my appoinment is tomorrow so hopefull its nothing big. Please keep teh questions coming if needed. when you think you know what it might be... post heh... so scared. :|



also the depression I'm talking about is like.. some days i dont want to be bothered with people. I will push everyone away from me... sometimes I dont even want to talk to anyone....and if I'm at work dealing with a customer I have no patience... its a depression where I get stressed out...like i hate everything about the world and i will nit pic at things... like for example.. the drug problem in my area or the way people drive when i'm driving. heh. I get a kind of attitude. just become really stressed. more of a temper problem but its depression....not sure how i can explain it best unless I type out my whole life...its tough. :|
