Can't tell...: Without an exam; could be thyroid nodule or diffuse enlargement, or other.

Get this checked.: A lump in the front of the neck could be a lymph node. It might be your thyroid gland if it's enlarged, and it could be a thyroid nodule - or even a tumor. There are also some other cysts that can remain from when we were embryos. Because it could possibly be something dangerous, you should see your doctor about this.
