A member asked:
I had half of my thyroid taken out now on the opposite side, it really hurts, tender to touch.. is it tbc?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It could be: Thyroid inflammation causing pain. If you just had the surgery, make sure you're not having post-operative bleeding. If the area is swollen, make sure your doctor sees it soon.
