Could this be thyroid cancer?

I have been experiencing pain in my thyroid area for about 2 weeks now off and on. I don't feel any lumps or nodules but I am scared and don't know what else it could be. Can anyone offer me any advice?

Hi Bixa525:

Such pain can be caused from a number of factors, and my advice to you would be to make an appointment with your doctor, or see an ENT (ear, nose, and throat specialist). Speculating will get you no where, and I think it is a very good sign that you feel no lumps or nodules. Even if nodules where present, most are benign. But to get relief from this and to get the answers you need; schedule an appointment with your doctor. It is likely not to be cancer, but pain comes for a reason.

Best wishes,

Rhonda
