HI.
IT is good that the thyroid and other tests are normal.
The humps may be a collection of fat called lipomas.
These can be well defined or can be diffuse where it is difficult to delineate the border.
The simplest test of sonography and FNAC ( fine needle aspiration cytology) will prove or rule out this.
You can request your doctor to remove this.
Vit D supplements must have already been prescribed by your Doctor.
