What Causes Persistent Growth In Thyroid Cartilage?
Hi, I am a 32 yo caucasian male. 1m84/6ft and 105kg/231lbs. I have been laying in bed 4 days a week since 2010 because my back is hurting. I have noticed since 2016 that my Adam s apple/thyroid cartilage has grown (not the thyroid itself). Is it linked? Thanks.

Hope this helps.
