What Is Leading To Formation Of Lump In My Throat?

Hi. I am a 24 year old female.. I noticed a lump on the right side of my neck a few months ago so I went to my doctor because when I was 8 I had a thyroid glossal duct cyst removed so I didnt know if it was coming back. So he had me do some blood test and have a cat scan done. When the results of that came back he seemed pretty concerned so he sent me to a ear nose and throat doc. When he examined me he told me that he wanted to look at the images of the cat scan himself and that I had two lumps now after that we would go from there. But it is taking forever to find out anything and I am scared. I am having difficulty swallowing soreness in my throat and my neck muscles are stiff.. do you have any idea what this could be.

Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
The lump in the neck could be the recurance of the thyroglosal duct, thyroid swelling, or lymph glands in the neck due to the tuberculosis.
Don't worry what ever the reason is it is to be operated, and then sent for biopsy for confirmation, and treated for complete cure.
Take more of green leafy vegetables, pulses, sprouts, and protein rich foods to have good health, and resistance against such infections.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
