Accidentally bra underwire pushed against my neck when getting dressed and it hurt. it was close to thyroid area. is there a chance it damaged my thyroid?

No. What you are describing is minimally traumatic, and it is extremely rare for even severe trauma to directly damage the thyroid and affect its function.
