A member asked:

Does hyperthyroid and a tiny thyroid nodular cyst cause difficulty swallowing?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Swallowing.: If you are hyperthyroid your doctor who diagnosed that should be treating you for it. A tiny thyroid nodular cyst should not cause difficulty swallowing. You should probably have your doctor refer you to an Ear, Nose, and Throat specialist.
