What are the dangers of goiter?

It can compress the blood vessels, trachea, and nerves in the neck.

The harm of goiter is actually very related to the degree of goiter. Goiter is usually divided into three conditions, as follows:

1. Enlargement is usually invisible, invisible to oneself and invisible to others, but can be touched;

2. The neck can be significantly thickened or a lump can be found to be swollen, and you can feel it at the same time;

3. The enlargement is very serious, you can clearly see the position of the thyroid gland, there is a huge mass, which is very dangerous, and can even compress the trachea, affect life safety, and cause shortness of breath and difficulty breathing.

Therefore, depending on the severity of goiter, it may be necessary to pay enough attention to the degree of goiter and go to the hospital for timely treatment. For patients with severe thyroid enlargement, surgery is usually recommended**, and it is usually recommended to go to the thyroid surgery department for further visits, and then evaluate the thyroid enlargement, the impact on the surrounding organs, and then choose the appropriate surgical modality**.

First of all, it is not aesthetically pleasing from the outside. Secondly, if it secretes thyroxine hyperfunction, it will produce various hypermetabolic symptoms, such as tachycardia, palpitations, irritability, heat and sweating. Preferably, if it is large enough to compress the surrounding tissues, such as the trachea, esophagus, nerves, blood vessels, causing difficulty breathing.

dysphagia, etc.

1. Dyspnea: When goiter occurs, if the relevant ** is not taken in time, the symptoms of swelling will be further aggravated, which may compress the tissues around the neck, but when it compresses the trachea, it will make the patient suffer from shortness of breath, shortness of breath and other discomforts, and even cause dyspnea.

2. Hoarseness: Some patients with goiter will cause damage to the local laryngeal transneural due to the severity of the condition, which will affect the normal pronunciation of the patient and cause hoarseness.

3. Affect the appearance: goiter may cause the patient's neck to bulge, which can be seen by the naked eye or touched, and the raised part will move up and down with swallowing, which will affect the appearance and may increase the patient's inferiority complex.

Introduction: The case of goiter is still very harmful to the human body, and under normal circumstances, the incidence of goiter in women is higher than that of men, when patients suffer from goiter, there will be neck discomfort, so that the front of the neck will appear enlarged and bulging, if the more serious goiter will compress the blood vessels, affect the breathing of the human body, and the trachea will soften for a long time, if it is not in time, it may also compress the throat nerve, which can lead to problems with the vocal cords, as well as difficulty breathing, difficulty swallowing, and difficulty swallowing. The harm of goiter is mainly related to the location and severity of the enlargement, and if the enlargement is more severe, then it may affect people's health.

There are many causes of the thyroid gland, such as hyperthyroidism can cause goiter, and hypothyroidism can also cause goiter. In addition, if the iodine in the body is insufficient, then it may lead to insufficient levels of thyroid hormones in the body, resulting in goiter.

If you want to prevent goiter, you need to pay attention to the intake of iodine in your diet, because iodine is mainly aimed at the synthesis of thyroid hormones, if you take in insufficient or too much iodine, it will cause thyroid lesions, so people in some areas often do not pay attention to the diet is prone to iodine deficiency, so you should use iodized salt to cook, emotionally we should also pay attention to avoid too much tension and anxiety, maintain a good attitude, and face life optimistically and cheerfully, so as to prevent the emergence of thyroid disease. Usually we should also pay attention to avoid overwork, otherwise it will increase the burden on the thyroid gland, reduce the body's immunity, and be attacked by external viruses in the long run, it is easy to develop goiter.

Finally, there are still a lot of people who find thyroid diseases in their lives, so we must pay more attention to the problem of goiter, actively prevent it, and carry out it in a timely manner, which is the best and safest way.

Goiter enlargement is divided into benign and malignant, if it is benign goiter, the enlarged nodule compresses the trachea, causing breathing difficulties, and the enlarged mass also affects the appearance. If it is a malignant mass, the consequences will be more serious, including benign adverse reactions, and more serious will invade the recurrent laryngeal nerve and cause hoarseness, and will also compress the esophagus and make swallowing difficult.

Enlarged thyroid gland can cause dyspnea, stunted growth, compression of the recurrent laryngeal nerve, hoarseness, edema, etc.

Difficulty breathing, difficulty swallowing, hoarseness, physical pain, poor sleep, these conditions can occur.

First, it can make the neck feel very uncomfortable. There will be some foreign body sensation in the neck, which is particularly uncomfortable. Second, it will leave you emotionally uncontrollable. Goiter says that there is an abnormality in hormone levels.

First, the neck will become significantly thicker, secondly, there will be obvious symptoms of compression, third, panting loudly, fourth, difficulty breathing, fifth, coughing, and sixth, difficulty swallowing.

Difficulty breathing, vocal cord paralysis, dysphagia. Goiter enlargement is divided into benign enlargement and malignant enlargement, benign enlargement is close to the trachea, and the enlarged nodule will compress the trachea, and to a certain extent, it will cause tracheomalacia, which will further lead to difficulty breathing. Malignant tumors, including invasion of the recurrent laryngeal nerve, can cause paralysis of one vocal cord, resulting in hoarseness; Invasion of the esophagus can cause dysphagia.

What are the top 3 effects of an enlarged goiter?

1) It is related to the location of the enlargement and the severity of the enlargement, under normal circumstances, this more serious goiter mass will compress the trachea and affect the patient's breathing, especially if the compression time is long, it will lead to the softening of the trachea, which may cause asphyxia;

2) It compresses the patient's laryngeal transverse nerve, which innervates the activity of our vocal cords, and when it is enlarged and compressed, the patient will find that his voice becomes hoarse;

3) It is the compression of the patient's neck venous return, resulting in local edema of the face, which is a particularly serious situation.

In general, the incidence of goiter is significantly higher in women than in men, especially when you reach puberty or become pregnant. In the past, most of the frequent goiter in China was caused by iodine deficiency, but in recent years, the incidence of goiter in non-iodine deficient areas has been increasing year by year.

If the thyroid gland is simply enlarged without abnormal thyroid hormone levels, it depends on the extent of the thyroid enlargement. If the degree of thyroid enlargement is more than three degrees and there is compression, it will affect the appearance of the patient, and the compression may make it difficult to swallow.

This should be checked regularly at the hospital, and surgery should be done if necessary.

Hello, your current thyroid enlargement is mostly considered to be a clinical manifestation caused by hyperthyroidism, which is obviously unfavorable to the electrolytes and trace elements in the body. It is recommended that you get a professional, endocrinology department to check thyroid function and thyroid ultrasound, so that you can make a clear judgment to choose the best way of drug intervention, so that it can be restored to a normal state.

The left and right lobes of the thyroid gland are attached to the larynx and tracheal neck, respectively, and the thyroid isthmus is transversely located anterior to the 2nd 4 tracheal cartilage. The posterior and outer parts of the left and right lobes of the thyroid gland are adjacent to the cervical blood vessels, and the medial surface is adjacent to the larynx, trachea, pharynx, esophagus, and recurrent laryngeal nerve. Therefore, when the thyroid gland is enlarged, it can compress the above structures, resulting in symptoms such as dyspnea, dysphagia and hoarseness, such as compression of the internal jugular vein, which can cause facial edema.
