Swallowing Difficulty, Throat Pain, Body Pain, Adult Acne, Hair Loss, Weight Gain. Thyroid Symptoms?

I am wondering if I should go in to check into a possible issue with my thyroid.. First thing that gives sign is difficulty swallowing , pain in throat, difficulty concentrating, memory issues, a lot of body aches, adult acne , hair loss , intolerance to cold, reoccurring infections, pain in the ears occasionally, dizziness, sometimes difficulty breathing, and i have had some weight gain as well. There also seams to be a lump under my adams apple. The lump is somewhat baseball size, extends approx an inch-inch 1/2 on each side of adams apple. Other issue is that I don t have income or insurance so I don t know exactly what to do about this issue as the E.R. won t help me and from what I ve researched it sounds like I may have a serious thyroid issue or maybe even cancer. I appreciate any info you can provide to assist or guide what i should do. Thank you so very much! My age is 28, I am male. Some of these symptoms have been ongoing for years. Again any info or suggestions helpful and would be helpful to respond to my email at YYYY@YYYY ... Thank you

You have probably solitary nodule of thyroid with compressive symptoms.Best to get evaluated to rule out malignancy by performing fine needle biopsy.The other tests you also need include thyroid function test and ultrasound scanning.
