I am taking relent tab from couple of days which reduce my feeling of something stuck in the throat, but this swelling is not going away, what should I do? I am scared .

Consult physically to endocrinologist its better to avoid further ultrasound and need for investigations if examination is normal.. If he found any abnormalities further test can be done..!!

The swelling looks like either thyroid swelling or thyroglossal cyst or lymph node. So u need to do a ultrasound and decide how to go about it. May need FNAC and a thyroid function test.
Next Steps
Thyroid function test, ultrasound
