Weight gain/loss - Throat Lump

Question

Asked for Female, 36 Years

I have a couple of benign lump in the right side of my throat... It is a heteroechoic nodule of about the size 14mm. I have a fairly decent lifestyle. My eating habits are very good. I mostly consume healthy food in right portion. However I have noticed that I gain weight very easily and it is extremely difficult to lose weight. I do not have any other conditions like pcod or pcos. All other medical tests came out normal. Is it possible that these lumps in my throat are preventing my weight loss? Can they somehow cause weight gain easily. Is a surgery to remove these lumps an extreme idea as they are benign and as of now just under monitoring.
