A member asked:
I want to know what a lump is on my throat is but it doesn't show up on ultrasound. what kinds of lumps cannot be seen on ultrasound imaging?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Globus: Globus hystericus, or globus pharyngitis, is a sensation of a lump in the throat, with no pathology. If there is no pain, and swallowing is normal, then it's probably globus. If you have a palpable neck lump, or pain, or abnomal swallowing, then there is something wrong and you should see an ENT doctor.
