Hi,yes possibility of goiter or cancer is there, But other symptoms like visible lump in neck in lump,or movable swelling with diglutination,weight loss,change in voice,is important, From your symptoms I feel its vocal nodule, In patients like you I advice laryngoscopy to rule out the causes,and carry out some blood test, I think you should visit a ent doctor,and get your symptoms evaluated, Hope this information helps.
