Hello!

I have what feels like some kind of lump on my throat almost right beside my adams apple on the left side. I can only feel it when i tilt back my head and feel around for it. It doesn't feel that on the other side  of my throat . I've also had the sensation of something stuck  in my throat for a few weeks now (it comes and goes) I have a history of anxiety i'm contantly feeling around mybody , almost as if i  am TRYING to  find something out of place or abnormal. And once i do find it, it completely takes over my mind and scares the hell out of me. I don't know if its just me being paranoid and getting that feeling from contantly touching and  pressing down on my throat or if it's serious. I'm absolutely TERRIFIED to go to a doctor ,i  don't want to find out if it's cancer or something serious. I'm a male ,22 y/o, and a smoker of 8 years. Anybody else have any experience with lumps on their throats? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks  in advance :)

i too have a small lets say birds egg sized lump on the outside of my throat tube...I think one should go to an ENT or cancer doctor...have not decided yet...if it is a meat lump than i suppose one must get it tested for cancer and get it excised...earlier i had a thyro glossal cyst on the throat tube above that...i have other problems too such as taking blood thinners and find surgery mildly dangerous...!

just in explanation...a lump in throat feeling is a different feeling which can be due to gerd or hypertension...while a lump on the outside of the throat tube is a different thing...

i have studied somemore...and if it is a lump below the Adams apple and you can feel it... it could also be due to the thyroid...needle aspiration or biopsy is usually a start
