Hi everyone, I'm back!
Had right-sided neck pain for about 2 months. Started with lump in the throat type feeling in the middle of my throat (I know this is common with anxiety) but then started to feel tender on right hand side. When I press my thyroid cartilage area (inch and a half area, adam's apple and below) it feels really tender deep inside, but only really on the right. The discomfort sometimes extends to the base of my tongue on the right hand side too. I'm wondering is this could be anxiety related? Or perhaps from grinding my teeth at night? Went to doctor about a month ago about it who prescribed me Lansoprazole for Acid Reflux. I was suffering from that I think because I had difficulty swallowing, burbing etc and that has gone now, just the neck tenderness left. Full Blood Count came back normal 2 weeks ago. I have another doctor appointment on Tuesday but don't have much hope of them knowing what's going on!
Any ideas?
