Hi Sir, I went for an ultrasound of a lump under my jaw. The doctor said its a swollen node from infection but it has been swollen for years. Can ultrasounds tell benign from malignant. Can you trust ultrasound results.

Can not say for sure but lot of time can suggest well. Most of the medical problems need personally taking detailed medical history and examination with the need for detailed reports so meet concerned doctor- ent surgeon.
