    Neck swelling can be either from thyroid source or from inflamation of the skin due to infection. to distinguish between them you can check if the swelling is connected to the thyroid or not. Try to swallow. If the swelling is moving - its a thyroid swelling. elsewhere its a cutaneous issue.

    Your neck problem can be due to several etiologies, but i can your symptoms sounds very familiar to the symptoms that i had during my thyroid gland inflammation.
    does your neck look like this?


    If so you need to contact en endocrinologist.
