Thyroiditis would indicate, either Hashimoto's or Graves Disease.   Your thyroid seems larger than normal (due to the thyroiditis), which means you have a goiter (swollen thyroid).   Have any other tests been done?   What blood tests were done to determine thyroiditis and what were the results, with reference ranges?

I can't really speak to your ultrasound results; however, I would like to see your blood test results and their reference ranges shown on the lab report.
