    Hyperthyroidism, also known as hyperthyroidism, is caused by the thyroid gland in the neck that synthesizes and secretes too much thyroid hormone. The incidence of hyperthyroidism in children is low, accounting for only about 5% of all patients, with 7 to 14 years of age being the most common age, and girls are more common than boys. Hyperthyroidism in children can be caused by a variety of reasons, such as hyperthyroidism caused by excessive iodine intake, the raw material for the synthesis of thyroxine, transient hyperthyroidism caused by the release of thyroxine into the blood, etc., the most common cause is actually autoimmune disorders.

    The immune disorder mentioned here is that under the action of environmental factors (bacteria, viruses, iodine) and stress (such as mental trauma), the body's immune function is stimulated, and antibody substances against the thyroid gland appear in the body, which are the engine of thyroid hormone secretion, thus causing hyperthyroidism. In addition, 60% of patients with hyperthyroidism have a family history, so there is a genetic link to hyperthyroidism in children. Children with hyperthyroidism must supplement a large amount of nutrients to ensure their growth and development due to their vigorous metabolism, increased consumption, and high nutritional needs during development.

It is best for school-age children to be able to fix at home for half a month and 1 month. Thyroxine can enhance heart contractility and speed up the heart rate, so exercise may add fuel to the fire of the heart of patients with hyperthyroidism, adult patients with hyperthyroidism can only do light exercise after normal thyroid function, but children's hearts are fragile, and it is not suitable to do exercise during hyperthyroidism, do not go to physical education classes.
