Hey

I seem to have a huge pointy adams apple. It looks like it's coming out more than it should and when I press it it goes back a bit. My older sister keeps saying I should have my head forward more to hide my adams apple. I'm trying to do it but having head forward is something I'm not used to. Do you guys have any suggestions?

Some ppl may get the wrong idea here. I'm straight and not trying to hide my manhood but when people are starting to notice it and making comments (not only my sister) about it, then I think there should be something done about it.

Thanks

I think it protrudes because of your posture. Your spine is pointing forward at the base of your neck so you have to lift your head up. If you stand up straighter it would probably help that among other things.

Or at the very least get a checkup with bloodwork from your GP.

Stand up straight and see a doctor. Maybe you just have an abnormally large (but benign) adam's apple. Maybe not, and it is worth checking out.

wow big deal. Mow some lawns, save up your pennies and get surgery performed on it. You're thin, have good skin, and probably look fine. Right now it looks as if you have a testicle lodged in your throat, just get rid of it if that bothers you and you'll be fine.

LMAO, no surgery i'm afraid. I'll keep my neck straight and move head forward. Then my adams apple moves back to its normal position. I've read about the operation and I won't want to experience voice changes and the other side effects plus I haven't had a sugrery on my body so far and I'm planning to keep it that way.

Hey, do you think Maurice Green sprints at record breaking speeds everywhere he goes?

I just think that being frank in this situation would be better than *****footing around the issue.
