My thyroid goitre is causing extreme pain, i've tried many over-the-counter pain killers, is there a stronger pill i can take?

Meds no answer: This issue needs to be addressed proactively and pain medication would not be primary solution. Meds but not of the pain variety would probably most appropriate. If symptoms due to enlargement, voice changes or even swallowing difficulty could ensue.
