Question 1

can groin pain be associated with an overactive thyroid?

Accepted Answer

Atypical: Your groin pain is not likely related to your thyroid gland.

Question 2

i had a hormone imbalance-test, and thyroid. improving now.  i gained weight in strange areas - groin and mid-section.  once my hormones are balanced will my fat distribution return as it was before?

Accepted Answer

I don't know: which of your body's thousands of hormones you're referring to and what an imbalance test is. You need to provide much more information before I can give you an answer. If you gained weight, you still need to burn off those calories (3500 to the pound) to lose the weight again. Try talking w/your doctor.

Question 3

i've got a hard, fixed lymph node in my groin with history of papillary thyroid cancer - should i be concerned?

Accepted Answer

Concerned, but: Highly unlikely to be thyroid cancer related
can check serum thyroglobulin; see md, if persists , easy to remove and pathologist can give diagnosis.

Question 4

i have a hard, fixed lymph node in my groin with history of papillary thyroid cancer. any reason for concern?

Accepted Answer

Not related?: Unusual for thyroid ca to appear alone in this area. Although anything is possible. I would suggest that you see your doctor.

Question 5

Accepted Answer

Normal: It is normal to be able to feel small lymph nodes in the groin or other areas of the body.  No need to worry about them.  It would be exceedingly rare for them to be related to your history of thyroid cancer.

Question 6

doc found a painless mass on my thyroid - what could this mean? i also have painful lymph nodes in chest, head, groin areas. please advise. thank you.

Accepted Answer

Thyroid: This is difficult to answer without a more thorough exam and studies. The thyroid mass is likley a nodule. Whether it is benign or not, I cannot say. The lymph nodes should be examined and followed and if needed, biopsied. Sorry I cannot give more information without examination and workup.

Question 7

i found a lump on front of neck. 20 year old male. lump is hard. have had thyroid related symptoms recently. swollen node near groin as well. what you think?

Accepted Answer

Nodes: Do not pass GO! Do not collect 200!

Go to your doctor as soon as you can be seen.
If there is more than a two day delay getting in please go to the nearest Emergency room today!

Question 8

sweat on my back, under my breasts, my groin, vagina, & behind my knees as soon as i go outside? not obese. 114 ibs and i'm 5'4 age 17 no thyroid prob

Accepted Answer

Summertime! : I'm not sure what the temp was In Philly today, but we hit 95 degrees and heat advisory in Kentucky.  The heat combined with the humidity triggers our bodies to sweat which helps cool the skin and this cool our core body temperature.  This experience sounds like " normal sweating" to me.  If you have night sweats combined with weight loss, see your physician!

Question 9

1. from childhood, had sores in mouth, blisters in groin region, underams, and pimples.doctors used to give b-complex, over years effectiveness went down. recent thyroid tests didn't show any problem.

Accepted Answer

See dermatologist: I suspect you have some type of chronic hereditary skin condition, something like histiocytoiss x, just to name one. I would urge you to see a dermatologist, perhaps even a pediatric one despite your age, and discuss skin biopsy with them to see if condition can be identified once and for all. Only then can appropriate treatment be initiated.

Question 10

i have a thyroid cyst, 10 enlarged lymph nodes in neck & 8 in groin, lung scarring, high k, low na, lower wbc, hypotension & a long list of symptoms?

Accepted Answer

Internist: You're not going to get a diagnosis in an on-line forum. You obviously have a complicated problem that will require a comprehensive evaluation.  If your local doctor can't help, seek help at an academic center with a general internist.  You're only 113 miles from DES moines. Ps, hi k and low na with low BP suggests addison's disease.
