Does it move when you swallow. Does it move when you protrude your tongue. It could be a Thyroglossal cyst which is usually harmless to a thyroid gland swelling. Are you having any problem with weight, bowel, sleep. Consult your Doctor and he will help find a solution for you. Don't worry. Be cool.
