A member asked:
What can a doctor feel in your throat. can he feel your thyroid and tonsils etc..
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Thyroid, nodes: When doctors check your neck we can feel an enlarged thyroid or thyroid nodules. We can also feel enlarged lymph nodes if you have them. We usually look at tonsils instead of feel them.
