What should I do if I have hyperthyroidism and obesity?

Obesity caused by hyperthyroidism should be treated with care and health care in daily life. When facing these diseases in daily life, try to get more rest, pay attention to nutritional supplements, prevent infection, avoid excessive fatigue and mental stimulation, and eat a reasonable and healthy diet.

1. Daily care

Early detection and diagnosis of this disease are closely related to treatment and prognosis. Therefore, once the diagnosis is confirmed, you should rest in bed appropriately, strengthen symptomatic and supportive treatments, and supplement adequate calories and nutrition. Prevent infection, excessive fatigue, mental stimulation and other inducing or aggravating factors.

2. Diet care

It is advisable to eat light, vitamin-rich, nutritious, and iodine-free foods. It is not advisable to eat fatty, greasy, spicy, and dry foods. Tobacco and alcohol are taboos.

3. Spiritual Care

Patients with this disease often have neurological symptoms such as nervousness, irritability, hyperactivity, talkativeness, insomnia and nightmares. Therefore, psychological adjustment is more important for treatment. The patients should be informed of the treatability and methods of the disease, so as to relieve their mental burden, avoid emotional fluctuations, comfort them at appropriate times, and put them in a comfortable environment to facilitate their recovery. Patients are encouraged to take part in some labor and physical exercise to strengthen their physical fitness and improve their resistance to disease.
