Hi,

I was just diagnosed with hyperthyroidism recently and had a sonogram last week and am still waiting for the results. Yesterday I noticed the front of my neck hurt next to my adams apple. It sort of feels like I pulled something, however it hurts when you press it, when I turn my head and I don't believe I did anything to hurt it. It also feels a little swollen! What do I do? Can this be thyroid related? I'm a little scared. Do I need to be alarmed? Thanks!

Hi Kristinehm,


It's hard to say why you're having that pain.

Hi there. I just read your post about your neck swelling. I don't have any answers for you, but I was wondering if anyone ever responded to your question. I have been having pain in the same area for the past two days. I too have hypothyroidism.
