What Is The Cure For The Big Red Lump Near The Center Of The Neck?

Hi, about 3 - 4 weeks back I sneezed and had had a lot of pain in my neck, moments after I realised I had a big, red lump near to the centre of my neck near my oesophagus. It is still red and I have not itched or scratched it. My doctor thinks that iv moved my voice box out of place.

Can you please help me?
kind regards Charlotte

Hi.
This is but a known although a rare complication of a forceful sneezing.
The best way to get a proper diagnosis is by an ENT Endoscopy and an MRI . This is very important as the area is also very important.
Most of the times the the treatment is conservative , that is by medicines , rest .
Very occasionally one may have to intervene surgically if the complications are anticipated or are present.
Please get proper investigations done to get the proper management .
Wish you an early and uneventful recovery .
