She is 30 years old. She has had her gullbladder taken out. Her other developed diabetes later in life, and she is a bit ovfer weight. If you can give me any suggestions or an idea, as what it couold be? thank you.
It could be a goiter which has developed from thyroid gland or a lymph nodal mass. Please get it evaluated by a FNAC, ultrasound neck and thyroid function test and CBC. Please get it evaluated by a general surgeon or head and neck surgeon or ENT surgeon.
