https://rxchat.com/Discuss/Swollen-Neck-219117_s2.htm?utm_source=forums_posts&utm_medium=RSS&utm_campaign=RSS my daughter is 11 years old and has a slight swelling where her thyroid glands are . it is not very obvious unless you look carefully. She is tall for her age and very fit and athletic, will this create any problems in future ? Should we worry about it? - Filed in Thyroid en-us Copyright 2026 RxChat.com. All Rights Reserved.
