Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
You have lump under adam's apple. It can be due to some thyroid enlargement, cyst or lymph node. You should go for ultrasound neck. If needed go for fine needle aspiration cytology. It will give you exact diagnosis. Then you should take treatment accordingly.
Hope I have answered your question. If you have any doubts then feel free to ask me. I will be happy to answer.
