Going to the endocrinologist is the usual course when a nodule is detected in the thyroid, since it is the specialist who studies the functioning of this gland. A thyroid adenoma is a generally benign growth of cells within the thyroid gland, which appears as a nodule in the neck.
Features: it often causes no discomfort and is discovered during an examination or routine test; at times it can be noticed as a lump.
When to see a doctor? An evaluation is advisable if a lump is felt in the neck or changes appear in the functioning of the thyroid.
Which specialist treats it? The endocrinologist evaluates the nodule and, depending on the case, the general surgeon may intervene. If you detect a lump in the neck, the prudent course is to discuss it with a professional.
