155701 tn?1230047101 Hi Mags, Thanks for your note and for your words of support. I didn't realize this would be such a process. But I suppose when surgery is involved there is no such thing as "straightforward." Good luck with everything and please keep me posted with how you're doing. I hope to see my new endo next week and in the meantime will ask my internist to reduce my dosage. Re your post above, I too feel pain and tenderness just above my Adam's apple.
Avatar m tn Hello. I am a 15 year old male and I am very concerned right now. About a month and a half ago, i noticed a lump under my chin and above my adam's apple. I was concerned so I went to my doctor. He explained the whole thing about how lymph nodes work and stuff. He also said it doesn't have characteristics that should be a concern. It was not rough, it was pea sized, and round. He said it should go down in about 2 weeks.
Avatar f tn It's kind of doubtful that it has to do with thyroid. The thyroid is a butterfly-shaped gland located just under the Adam's apple. However, sometimes thyroid does cause esoteric symptoms. Unless you've been diagnosed with a thyroid condition or disease, thyroid would not be the first place I'd go on this. What does your doctor have to say?
Avatar f tn The Adam's apple is not the thyroid location.) -Tip the head back. -Take a drink of water and swallow, watching the neck during the process. -Check for any bulging or protrusions. If any is detected, call a doctor for a check up.
Avatar m tn Hi. I'm a 29 years old healthy male, I exercise daily and have never had any serious condition. Around 10 days ago, I noticed a small lump in the right side of the my neck, on the underside of my jaw above my adam's apple. I believe it's actually a lymph node, but I can't tell for sure. A few days ago, it was noticeably larger than it is now. Right now, I'd say its size is 3 or 4 mm, while a couple of days ago was 6 or 7 mm.
Avatar n tn The AACE recommends to do the thyroid neck check in this case: Hold the mirror so that you can see the area of your neck just below the Adam's apple and right above the collarbone. This is the general location of your thyroid gland. Tip your head back, while keeping this view of your neck and thyroid area in your mirror. Take a drink of water and swallow. As you swallow, look at your neck.
Avatar f tn s apple with and without swallowing. I also have occasional pain that moves around on the sides under the Adam's apple and can be pretty intense after eating. Sometimes but not always my throat also tightens and I feel like I am choking and it is somewhat more difficult to breathe about 15-20 mins after eating. Also, after talking for a while my voice starts to get rough. I can still eat okay without much problem swallowing.
Avatar m tn Helloi have a question regarding submandibular glands under my jaw just above my Adam's apple. When I feel for these I can feel 2 small like pea kind of sized moveable lumps.

Avatar n tn I have had a tender throat to the touch under the Adam's apple region for about two weeks now. I can't even stand to touch it. If I press ion it it almost makes me gag. My throat feels somewhat restricted as well. I have sleep apnea but use a CPAP machine at night. I have also had a nose surgery for turbenectomy (spelling) and something else (forgot) deviated septum I think. Anyway just wondering if I should get this looked at or wait for a week or so.
Avatar n tn I had a TT a week ago and developed a large bump about 1/2" above incision site. It is hard, solid feeling like a small rock and sensitive to touch. It stings b/c of the pressure my neck has on it. Ice packs make me comfortable but once ice wears off, then it stings again. It almost looks like a large adam's apple, however, it is not! I'm female and never had this before. My TT was because of a goiter/hashimotos. It is HOT to the touch.
Avatar m tn I have been experiencing the following symptoms and am in the process of eliminating causes with my doctor, but wonder if this sounds familiar or coincidental to anyone. ~I have a 'lump in my throat (internal) sensation around the area behind my adam's apple...
Avatar n tn i have had a viral cold for three weeks four days ago i had a really sore throat when i woke up the next day i felt light headed and notice a lump under my adam's apple it moves up and down as i swallow
Avatar f tn Hi I am a 49 year old woman who had a hemithyroidectomy 10 months ago because of a very large goitre. About 3 weeks ago while rubbing sunscreen on my neck I noticed a lump that I'd never felt before. It's just slightly to the right of my windpipe (the same side that had the goitre) and is about 2 cm big. At first I wondered if it was my adam's apple, but found it weird that I'd never felt it before.
Avatar f tn Hello. I've been struggling with some issues for over 3-4 months. To begin with, I have several swellings near and above my adam's apple. One of them is very hard and pea sized. It is located 1 cm right to the adam's apple. I think it's on my thryoid or something but I'm not sure. It goes up and down a little bit when I swallow. The other one is above the apple and a little bit softer than the other. Another thing is, I have whiteness all over my mouth.
Avatar m tn For the last year my neck as been swollen. It started to affect my job... anxiety attacks, not feeling well. I've had ultrasounds, ct scans, mri and bloodwork. The doctors have found a nodule on either side of my thyroid and minor bulging cervical spine discs. I have seen my doctor numerous times, an ent and now I'm going to see an endocrinologist. I've have had all of these tests done and my neck is swollen above the collarbone on both sides...
Avatar m tn I'm a 29 year old male, recently quit smoking and drinking. Have had past issues of anxiety and stress, which resulted in drinking heavily on weekends, and I never really smoked unless I drank. In January 2012 I have a bad chest and throat infection which last 6 weeks, I was given an antibiotic called "Eryc" to take 2 weeks. I was after I started to feel better I noticed there was pain above my adam's apple specifically when I yawned, and mostly after having a cigarette.
Avatar n tn I had oral sex but he did not come in my mouth. Three days later I have a pea sized swelling in my trachea in the soft tissue below the Adam's apple where I knot my tie. it hurts when I press it or stretch my jaw.Any need to worry.

Avatar m tn My anxiety is alot better just that twitching poking pain I have above my Adam's apple
Avatar n tn Hi. That lump you described can be a lymph node, which is normally found in that area, and which may be palpable in thin people. Neck nodes may also become enlarged and prominent due to a nearby infection or inflammation (example: recurrent sore throat, a chronic ear infection, or tooth decay). Another possibility is that the lump may be a thyroglossal duct cyst. This cyst usually appears in the middle of the neck above the thyroid cartilage (adam's apple).
Avatar m tn You know the "lump in your thoat" feeling when you're fighting off crying? I've had that feeling now for a over a week now. It feels like I need to wash down some food stuck in my thoat. A mild constriction and lump feeling on the inside of the throat, within and underneath what I imagine would be the adam's apple. It's very different from a sore or hoarse throat. The last cold I had was last year, I have no cough, and I haven't been taking any medications.
Avatar m tn Hello! I have posted on this site numerous times before and have always found everyone to be helpful. My new reason for posting has to do with a tiny pea size lump I found a little over 6 months ago under my jaw, above the Adam's apple. I THINK that it is somewhat moveable but at times I'm not even sure if I'm grabbing it at all. But either way as I said I first found it 6 months ago and I haven't seen any growth since.
Avatar m tn I am very concerned that I have HIV or another STI. I recently have swollen lymph nodes on the left side of my neck and left side of my groin. I also have a fever of about 99 - 100. Here are the series of events for the past three months: 6/8 - Had unprotected sex with my girlfriend. 6/15 - Had unprotected sex with my girlfriend. Had not had sex with her since then because of our summer jobs being in different cities.
Avatar m tn lymph nodes are located throughout the body...google it.
