What Medication Is Suggested For A Sharp Protruding Lump Above Adam S Apple?
Have a sharp protruding lump above my Adam s apple that moves with it when I swallow. It s close to my chin and when swallowing it has the appearance of disappearing into the chin. It sometimes can cause swallowing to become uncomfortable after sitting for long periods. What is it?
Hi, dear I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. Your lump is moving with swallowing. If it is also moving with tongue protrusions then it could be thyroglossal cyst.
if it doesn't move with tongue protrusion then it is of thyroid swelling.
You should go for ultrasound neck, Thyroid function test and fine needle aspiration cytology of lump.
Then you should take treatment accordingly. Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
