i had a 2cm goiter on my thyroid it was uncomfortable, and was digging into my wind pipe slightly and the constant feeling of swallowing glue was horrible, i had surgery to remove the goiter and let me tell you its probably the best surgery you can have! Honestly the only problem i had was when the staples were in it just retricted my head and neck movement for a day ! so if it does come to remving it then i how this post helps you out
