Is A Lump In Throat Symptom Of Throat Cancer?

HI I'm 35 and worried about throat cancer. I rub my hand down the middle of my throat and feel a little lumpy bump on the right side. Also, under chin little lumps that swells up and down. I don't have any other symptoms. My family says that it's normal to them and that glands swells up and down.

It is normal to feel certain structures in throat like thyroid cartilage. sometimes tiny nodes can be palpated in neck espesially in upper part of neck. Structures in neck need clinical attention only if the nodes are persistent and increasing in size.
