Health program for the treatment of thyroid nodules

I don't usually believe in these healthy programming channels anymore.

The methods of thyroid nodules include thyroid hormone**, iodine supplementation, surgery** and traditional Chinese medicine**.

Advantages of Traditional Chinese Medicine**:

1. Traditional Chinese medicine does not destroy thyroid tissue. There are no *** and complications.

2. According to different physiques, severity of the disease, the length of onset, and the difficulty of the disease, all kinds of symptoms can be eliminated.

3. The combination of internal and external treatment ensures the balance of yin and yang in the human body, regulates immunity in both directions, and restores thyroid function.

4. Combined with Western medicine science and technology, the comprehensive system is used to eliminate the root cause of the disease and eliminate it.

First of all, the probability of benign disease is high, and there is generally no big problem, just pay attention to whether there are signs of getting bigger every year. **Method recommendations are to pay attention to diet, maintain a good mood, have regular physical examinations, and go in time if there is a change**.

Thyroid nodules are divided into benign and malignant, you should go to a regular hospital, follow the doctor's words, take appropriate methods, not blindly, and pay attention to more observations.

The best way to do this is through Chinese herbal medicine, which will get better faster and more thoroughly.

Depending on the situation you described, thyroid nodules can be temporarily observed if they are simple nodules with no changes in thyroid function and no tendency to malignant transformation. If the nodule is enlarged in the short term, or if there is a change in thyroid function, surgery is preferred.

What is a thyroid nodule? To put it simply, as long as there is something on the thyroid gland, it is generally referred to as thyroid nodules, which are the most common kind of thyroid diseases, which may be caused by chronic inflammation of the thyroid gland, or may be cell hyperplasia, on average, 1 in 4 to 5 adults have thyroid nodules, and the incidence rate of women is higher than that of men, especially women aged 40 to 60, who are at high risk. Thyroid nodules run in families, so if someone in your mother, aunt or other female relative has had a thyroid nodule in the past, it is best to have regular check-ups.

Most thyroid nodules are benign

Fortunately, most thyroid nodules are benign and can be determined by non-invasive ultrasound, which usually looks less smooth with irregular or unclear edges. If ultrasound still does not rule out malignant thyroid nodules, a fine needle aspiration cytology will be done, which is to insert a blank needle into the nodule and extract a small number of cells for pathological examination to determine whether it is benign or malignant.

However, sometimes a single fine needle aspiration may not be able to aspirate malignant cells, so if there is a suspicion, it is still necessary to follow up regularly and repeat the fine needle aspiration examination. Because long needles look really scary, many patients are quite reluctant to do this kind of examination, and they ignore the importance of tracking.

But why do thyroid nodules occur?

At present, there is no definite answer in the medical field, and it is still impossible to find a reason why there are more women than men; It is generally speculated that it may be related to stress and diet, especially iodine, which is associated with exposure to radioactive materials, which are suspected to precipitate thyroid nodules.

Since most of the nodules are benign, doctors usually only ask patients to follow up regularly, in addition to seeing whether they have turned into malignant tumors, they are also afraid that if the abnormal growth is abnormal, it will be large enough to compress the trachea, esophagus, etc., which may affect the patient's swallowing, voice, and even respiratory function, at this time, surgery, ablation, and minimally invasive resection. Thyroid nodules are divided into three categories: parenchymal, cystic, mixed parenchymal and cystic, among which solid thyroid nodules are the most likely to develop cancer, so patients with such nodules should be kept track of them.

Thyroid nodules are a common thyroid disease, mainly manifested as single or multiple thyroid masses, which occur in women and the elderly, but 95% of such nodules are benign, so if thyroid nodules are detected, there is no need to worry too much, although the possibility of self-healing is not too great, but as long as you have regular examinations and strict control of diet, the disease will not develop too fast, and in most cases will not turn into malignant nodules. The remaining 5% of thyroid nodules may be malignant, requiring surgery** and oral medications.
