Lump on throat (goiter? thyroid?)

[purupura]

Okay so when you touch it and it's sore, can you relate it to maybe constant touching. If there's an area my body I'm worried about I constantly touch it and then just the touching alone makes it sore. Great news on your blood work. If they felt like it was a thyroid nodule you would be having an ultrasound.

I do touch it tbh but not to that extent, it randomly started being sore today and when I lift my chin up it hurts a bit too

Hmmmm maybe call your doctor and see if you could get referred for an ultrasound or if they feel like it could be a nodule. Is there any chance now that you know it's there That's why it started hurting.

Hey sorry for the late reply, I don't remember touching it or accidentally hitting it. But the pain is completely gone now , it lasted almost one day and a half of it being sore, is this a good sign?? The reason I'm hesitating to ask my doctor for an ultrasound is that it's hard to even get a phone appointment with them rn if they feel you don't need to see a doctor, they might tell me they won't refer my coz my blood tests are okay, I'm just worried I would be putting stress on them and demanding too much on top of Corona lol. I'll see if I can just get a phone appointment to discuss my results with the doctor and see how that goes.

The pain being gone is good. With thyroid nodules it's immediate ultrasound so if they chose to do blood work instead that means they did not feel it was a nodule. All good news
