Suspected Thyroglossal Cyst

2021-06-27 12:26:52
After a CT, my ENT suggested for a MRI, which I will be getting it done in two days. But I have been having some swelling and feels like a vein is tightening up. Kindly suggest if I should be ready to go to the ER, or I can simply take Chymoral plus and Enzomac and wait to get my MRI done. I'm a little worried if my airway would get obstructed.
