Suggest Treatment For Lump Near Laryngeal Prominence
Hi, I have this small lump under my neck, next to my Adam s apple, it only pains when I press on it or bend my neck forward to touch my chest. I have only noticed its existence a few hours ago and cannot see a doctor until Friday but I am very worried about it as recently I have known two people to die from throat cancer after they found a lump on their throat. Could you please reply to me as soon as possible, that would be great. I really appreciate you taking out your valuable time to read through this. Thank you very much.

Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
You may have some soft tissue tumor or some thyroid swelling. However possibility of cancer can not rule out.
You should go for fine needle aspiration cytology of that lump. Then go for surgery according to diagnosis.
No need to worry. Just go for it.
Thank for using health care magic.
Wish you a very good health.
