Here is some info (aimed at children since it is most often diagnosed in childhood): Thyroglossal Duct Cyst

I know what it is because I still have papers from my pediatrician long time ago that diagnosed it. I've had it since I was 3, but doctors said they couldn't remove it because I had to wait until I was an adult. Don't know why, but I know kids have them removed now. It was back in the 70's so who knows.
Now it's starting to bother me so I just got back from the doctor and he's sending me to get an ultrasound.
