A member asked:

Can a thyroid nodule feel like a small lymphnode on trachea?

Dr. Michael Korona answered

Specializes in Radiology - Interventional

Possible.: Specially if your nodule is in the isthmus of the thyroid. Isthmus is a small portion of the thyroid that can connect the two lobes together.
