What Causes Movable Lump Attached To Cartilage Of Throat?
Hi there, I have a marble sized lump that is firm and moves up and down only when I swallow. It seems like it is attached to the cartilage in my throat on my right side. It is approximately 1-2 inches north of my adam s apple and to the right a little bit. My doctor recommened a sonagram. I am just worried. Does it sound like something serious. Thanks
