Throat or thyroid cancer possibility?!
Question: Throat or thyroid cancer possibility!?
For a little over 3 weeks now I have felt or get the sensation that there is something in my throat!. I don't feel it constantly though!. There will be days where I feel it when I swallow!. Then there will be days when I don't feel anything!. My tonsils also irriate me!. Usually when I drink something cold they feel like they become hardened!. Or sometimes when I eat something large and bulky I get a quick feeling of tenderness on them!. The same with me throat when I swallow at times!. I will sometimes get a pain between my adam's apple and thyroid when I swallow liquids that last for less than a second!. The roof of my mouth also feels dry and makes breathing with my mouth discomforting!. I just feel a general sense of mouth ache, and throat discomfort!. Another thing that i've noticed is that my tonsils look a bit inflamed and mildly red!. No spots or anything on them though!.
I don't have swollen glands!. I don't have swollen lymph nodes or fever!. Or no aches or pains anywhere else!. I do not feel or have any lumps on the rest of my body either!.
I am 20 years old!. I don't drink!. I've never smoked or chewed tobacco in my life!. And I live in a smoke free house!. I still have my tonsils!. I don't have insurance yet so I haven't gone to the doctor!. I am just looking for opinions or people who have had this sort of discomfort lasting this long!. Thank you!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

sometimes stress gives the feeling of something in the throat!.last year i was diagnosed with base of the tongue cancer!.first symptoms was a fullness in the throat and coughing up lots of mucous the next symptom was 2 large swollen glands in the neck thats when i went to the doctors!.he sent me to an ent specialist who took a biopsy of one of the glands and it came back positive for cancer!.after chemo and radiotherapy i am now in remission,i really think you should see your doctoer and i really hope its nothing serious!.all the best to you!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
