Hi,
Ultrasonography of the neck and thyroid can be used to detect nodule. I advise you to schedule for an appointment with your endocrinologist for further investigation to clarify your diagnosis and treat your case.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
