thyroid gland?

I can feel like a swollen gland in my throat, right where my thyroid is. i’m going to the doctor friday for something else and i’ll ask him but i was wondering if you all had any info. my neck isn’t swollen from the outside, my thyroid, by touch, feels the same on both sides (not particulary swollen like a goiter) and the feeling is on the right side. i can feel it when i swallow sometimes or when my head is bent down. just a small pressure, no pain. the thing is, i’ve felt this before, a few weeks ago but it went away. i’m wondering if it isn’t allergies or a cold virus but after looking at gland anatomy charts, it seems my thyroid is the only gland right there. maybe its a nodule? but wouldn’t i feel it all the time and not just on and off if it was a nodule?
so weird… let me know if anyone has any info on this
=)
