A member asked:
Can a mass on the thyroid be spread to the right lobe? because i found out that there is a solid nodule on the right lobe of the thyroid
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It can: As there are types of cancer that can readily spread locally even in the thyroid. Realize it's also possible to multiple thyroid nodule on both sides without any cancer too. It sounds like you need to review this with your doctor and possibly have a thyroid ultrasound completed to visualize the area.
