Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
You may have either some thyroid lesion or some mediastinal mass like thymoma or germ cell tumor or it may be some soft tissue tumor.
You should go for ct scan of chest and neck. It will give exact idea regarding location and origin.
Then if needed go for fine needle aspiration cytology.
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.
