The unusual growth of the thyroid cells forming a solid or fluid-filled lump in the thyroid gland is a thyroid nodule. A thyroid nodule is related to cancer. But the chances are meager. Different thyroid nodules are multinodular goiter, inflammatory nodule, colloid nodules, thyroid cysts, and hyperfunctioning thyroid nodules. A very low percentage of thyroid nodules are cancerous. Most of the nodules remain unnoticeable. Rarely they cause hoarseness of voice, pain in the neck, palpable mass, difficulty swallowing, etc. They can cause both hypo and hyperthyroidism. Watching, radioactive iodine, and surgeries are the available treatment options.
