I 've thyroid nodules, largest 3.3cm, days ago i started with ear pain, no infection, could benign nodules cause this?massaging thyroid doesn't repeat pain

not likely: Sometimes problems in the thyroid can cause pain radiating to the ears, but one would expect tenderness over the thyroid area. It is therefore unlikely that your ear pain is from the benign thyroid nodules. You should see an ENT doctor of symptoms persist.
