Can you grow desmoid tumors after thyroidectomy?

What about the fact that cysts, while they may be non-cancerous, cause real pain on the surrounding structures of the neck. Even the tiny mm cysts cause pain. I’ve talked to so many people with 3-6mm cysts and my cyst is 3mm and it feels awful in the area the cyst is. I have no other problems. No thyroiditis, I have a healthy thyroid function, and all is fine. Except for this damn cyst. I wish the medical community could do something.
