What Does My Ultrasound Scan Report Indicate?
Question: My daughter who is 18 and lives on her own called me this am saying that she had pain all the way down her back and into her chest. Says it is excruciating and she can't drive. She had strep in XXXXXXX Cleared up we thought but on and off thyroid swelling and previous ultrasound I ndicated nodules. History of ear infections and multiple surgeries on the ear with throat swelling. I can't get her to agree to ER visit. How worried should I be? I no longer have rights to make her go. She does have history of anxiety and teen depression and past drug use. Please advise. Thank you.

The back pain is probably due to back muscles spasm. If thyroid nodule is benign on ultrasound and fnac and thyroid function test is normal, nothing is to be done.
Take tablet diclofenac plus chlorzoxazone twice daily and calcium supplements.
Do hot fomentation.
Any throat irritation?
Any ear discharge?
Any hearing difficulty?
