Hello, In the early stage, the thyroid gland is mildly enlarged, soft, without spontaneous symptoms, followed by the enlargement of the gland, showing nodules. In the later stage, it may grow rapidly and develop compressive symptoms such as voice, dysphagia, and dyspnea, as well as regional lymphadenopathy or distant metastases.

Summary. Q&A] Hello! Kiss!
Thyroid nodules generally do not show functional changes, and the basal metabolic rate of patients is normal, and a few patients may have secondary hyperthyroidism; However, when the nodule is large, the following symptoms will appear: 1. Compression of the trachea: more common.
compression from one side, displacement or flexion of the trachea to the other; Compression from both sides, narrowing of the trachea, dyspnea, especially in retrosternal goiter. Long-term compression of the tracheal wall can lead to softening of the trachea and causing suffocation. 2. Compression of the recurrent laryngeal nerve:
It can cause damage to the vocal cords (usually on one side) and hoarseness. Compression of the sympathetic ganglion chain in the neck can cause Horner syndrome, but it is extremely rare. 3. Compression of the esophagus:
Rare. A retrosternal goiter alone may compress the esophagus, causing discomfort when swallowing, but not obstructive symptoms. 4. Compression of deep neck veins:
It can cause difficulty in blood return to the head and neck. This condition is more common in large goiters at the upper thoracic opening, especially in retrosternal goiters. The patient's face is bluish-purple puffy, with a shallow neck and chest.

Thyroid nodules can be more numerous**. The causes of thyroid nodules are different, how much they are different, and the most important methods that need to be adopted are also different. If it is nodular thyroiditis, because it is mostly manifested as small nodules and too much, it is not suitable for surgery, and the main **measure should be to do a good job of **control, usually not**. >>>More
Hello, this thyroid nodule is a common thyroid disease. Nodules with a diameter of more than 10 mm have a risk of cancer, and should be re-examined regularly according to the results of color ultrasound, and if necessary, puncture can be given to determine the benign and malignant nodules. If it is less than 10mm and the thyroid function and thyroid ultrasound are normal, no special treatment is required, and regular follow-up thyroid ultrasound can be done.
Hello, the symptoms are as follows:
First, many patients are found to have thyroid nodules during physical examination. Because simple thyroid nodules usually have no symptoms. >>>More
1. Patients with thyroid nodules can drink tea, drinking tea can also help prevent aging, health care function, and drink some weak tea when you are fine, it will also inhibit cell mutations, have anti-cancer effects, and will also have certain benefits for patients. >>>More
To prevent thyroid nodules, soak 1 plant in water to drink, reduce swelling and dissipate knots, and avoid a thick neck.
