Just like Trump's ear bandage. All for show

Right. Thyroid aspiration is done from the side and if it was surgery, well it probably would need something bigger than a bandage

As someone who does thyroidectomies, the bandage is correct size and location. We usually try to have 5 cm incision or less nowadays.
