Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. You may have some thyroid swelling, salivary gland enlargement or lymphnode enlargement. You should go for ultrasound neck study. It will give you exact diagnosis. Then if needed go for fine needle aspiration cytology or biopsy and 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.
