Hello,
With the question “What is the sign of discomfort when swallowing? ", the doctor would like to answer as follows:
Your thyroid examination results are normal, the parenchyma is even (smooth, homogeneous) and the right lobe volume is 2.4mm3, the left lobe volume is 3.2mm3 is completely within normal limits. The volume of each thyroid lobe can be different but not absolutely equal, so with this result you don't need to worry too much
As for the uncomfortable swallowing symptoms in your neck area can be caused by many different reasons such as: ENT, throat dysarthria or gastritis with gastroesophageal reflux or esophageal tumor.
Therefore, you should see more specialists related to the above diseases to find out the exact cause of swallowing problems and have a timely treatment plan.
