Pressure In Neck On Right Side. Lump In Thyroid, Done Biopsy, Diagnosed As Bengn. Recommendations?
I have a lump by my thyroid that has been there for about a year and now have a hard lump under my right jaw line and in my groin. My physician did a biopsy on the one by my thyroid about 6 months ago and the results were benine. The other lumps are new. I occasionally have a tightness/pressure in my neck on the right side. Just wondering if this is common in 24yr old females or if there might be something more seriuos.

It is good news that you lumps are benign. However you must get the new one examined by a doctor. There are many reasons for lumps such as familial, malignancy. iodine deifciency etc. Yes swellings are commonly seen in young females in thyroid. However if u develop prsessure symptoms you can have surgery to releive them.
