Can stress make your Thyroid swollen? just like a swollen Thyroid cause stress?

I have a slight swollen node just bellow my Adam's apple and a stretched muscle just where the Trachea is.

It almost went away after 2 days but now its back, could it be virus/allergy/stress/food related? (i'm a very healthy guy but stressed/anxious at times)

Please avoid "go to the doctor" comments (cause i'm on it) :D


Thanks

No. Stress is not going to make your thyroid to be swollen.
(As per the other information regarding Hashimotos, that is a cause of hypothyroidism, most likely in women in their 30's, and the neck is swollen together with other symptoms which I don't think you have)

I take thyroid pills and I am always stressed out and NO stress can not make your thyroid swell.. you have something else going on..

No stress cannot cause thyroid problems.

It could be a nodule on your thyroid or it can be inflammation of the muscle you stretched. I cant see it so I wouldnt be able to tell you for sure. I think your doctor will probably be able to accurately tell you after examining you.

Post your questions on the forum at this site. Most qualified monitors on-line for hyperthyroid questions.

No, stress will not cause a swollen thyroid gland.
