    Hello: 1. There are different types of diseases.

    Thyroiditis: The clinical division of thyroiditis is Hashimoto's thyroiditis and subacute thyroiditis, which is a thyroid disease with inflammation as the main manifestation.

    2. Different locations:

    Parotid glands: There are 3 pairs of salivary glands, parotid glands, sublingual glands, and submandibular glands, the largest of which is the parotid gland.

    The thyroid gland: located two transverse fingers below the Adam's apple in the human body, close to the trachea, divided into left and right lobes, surrounded by parathyroid glands and recurrent laryngeal nerves.

    3. The symptoms are different

    Parotid gland: After suffering from mumps, the face is like a fat man with a swollen face. Because the parotid gland is located on both cheeks near the earlobe, the swollen parotid gland in mumps is centered on the earlobe and spreads to the periphery, so mumps is called "big mouth" in folklobes

    Thyroiditis: slow onset, long course of disease, diffuse enlargement, hard texture, ** or mild tenderness, smooth surface, may have nodules, local compression and systemic symptoms are not obvious, occasional pharyngeal discomfort, normal or abnormal thyroid function. Best wishes!
