Hello,
For about a year (at least) I've had a very small, pea-sized lump on the left side of my neck, about half way down and level with my ear. It doesn't hurt, but sometimes around the general area I get a bit of tension or very mild aching.
I'm jumping to the standard conclusion of course that it could be cancer, but also that the aching etc. I'm imagining... But then again if I've had it for this long and it hasn't done anything then I don't know
Any ideas? I'm a bit worried.

it could be an inflamed lymph node or a salivary gland.
if you've had a bad cold recently, sometimes a lymph node will swell up for a while.

I had a cold in December but it wasn't severe, it only lasted 3 days.
I'm just worried that it could be affecting my health. I get lots of pains throughout my body.
