Bumps on neck

[maya1401]

For the past year, I have had a small  tender, movable bump on the left side of my neck.  I did not think it was serious because it was not painful.  I have been tracking the size and it seems to be getting bigger. It went from a pea size to an almond.  I am now having more of these pea-sized bumps accumulating on the left side of my neck. (around 3-4) Are these benign cysts or something more serious?

I would greatly appreciate any feedback. Thanks!

Would see your doctor and have thyroid/neck ultrasound for additional evaluation and decision-making on whether FNA biopsy is needed.

My husband also has two cysts on the side of the place where he got the first part of his thyroid out.Did you find out what it was or why they appear? He was told they would have to be cut out!
