No, a goiter is simply a symptom of a thyroid imbalance. However, if your metabolism is slow due to hypothyroid (slow functioning thyroid), your immune system is weak, and you have poor circulation, it is possible you could have sores on your body due to a poor healing response or you could have digestive insufficiency, an infectious disease, kidney imbalance, etc. So, find out the cause of your sores, by consulting a trained health care practitioner.
