[|Human|] Hi Im a 24 year old female and about a week ago I noticed a lump on the right side of my neck near my jaw bone it does not hurt just kinda bothersome my mom says it could be my thyroid because my hands and feet sweat alot and Im tired more than often lately?? Just not sure if its an emergency or if it can wait cuz I have no insurance?
[|AI|]  Hi, dairy have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. You may have some enlarged lymph node or thyroid enlargement. Lymph node enlargement can be due to reactive hyperplasia, tuberculosis or lymphoma. Thyroid swelling can be due to colloid goiter or other cause. You should go for ultrasound study of neck.  Then if needed to go for fine needle aspiration cytology of that lump.  It will give you exact diagnosis. Then you should take treatment accordingly.
