An underactive thyroid gland, a disorder called hypothyroidism, would cause a sensation of lump in the throat. General enlargement, nodules and inflammation in the thyroid gland can be caused by both hypo as well as hyperthyroidism. These nodules can cause a feeling of lump in the throat. Diagnosis usually rests on physical examination, blood tests, a needle biopsy and possibly an ultra sound examination.
The first sign of a cancerous nodule in the thyroid gland is usually a painless lump in the neck. Other symptoms may include: Hoarseness or loss of voice as the cancer presses on the nerves to the voice box. Difficulty swallowing as the cancer presses on the throat. Throat or neck pain that does not go away.
