What is Goiter?
A goiter (GOI-tur) is an abnormal enlargement of your thyroid gland. Your thyroid is a butterfly-shaped gland located at the base of your neck just below your Adam's apple. The most common cause of goiters worldwide is a lack of iodine in the diet. Symptoms include difficulty swallowing and breathing, hoarseness, coughing and throat tightness.
