Right near the bottom of her neck. Not super noticeable unless examined, but apparently its been there for a while.

Were going to get it looked at by a doctor. Im worried. Its one of the signs of thyroid cancer. Shes terrified, doesnt even want to get it looked at.

Were both only 27. Hoping for the best. Trying not to worry until I know more, it could be several things.

I hope it's not thyroid cancer, but on the unfortunate chance that it is, iirc, thyroid cancer is one of the most treatable forms of cancer.

a few years back, I had problems with my throat, and I looked into it because it's not uncommon for people in my family to have thyroid issues.

anyway, I'm hoping for the best for her.

I'm sure you're saying this in the sense of "attack the lump right now to make sure it's not cancer", but I read it as "punch your wife in the throat as hard as you can"

Any kind of growth or tumor you have to be aggressive with.

Its probably just a cyst that formed in a tiny fistula, its still a surgery to remove but I dont think its gonna be a big deal, I had one of these removed a few years ago. Its really low stakes and super super common.

I've had a cousin and an uncle with a lump. Thyroid cancer is treatable if caught early on.

My girlfriend just had a partial thyroid removal a week ago. I was pretty freaked out by the situation at first as well.

Things will very likely be alright.

I hope its one of the many benign things that can grow on the thyroid gland. Its a weird organ that causes a lot of people grief, but there are many treatments for thyroid issues.

Friend had a bump on her thyroid, but it was actually the ridiculously high tension of her muscles somehow throwing her spine out of wack and making part of her neck swell. That was weird.

I have a friend who had a similar lump, and thankfully that's a pretty easy type of tumor to remove. Hope everything goes well.
