Introduction to multiple solid nodules of the thyroid

Multiple solid nodules of the thyroid sound difficult to understand. This is a more medical term. We need to know something about this disease, and then know what causes it, what harm it brings to us, and how can we prevent the occurrence of this disease? If you suffer from this disease, can it be effectively treated? Let's take a look together.

Multiple thyroid nodules are a type of thyroid nodules. Thyroid nodules are a very common disease, especially in middle-aged women. Thyroid nodules are divided into two categories: benign and malignant. Benign nodules account for the vast majority, while malignant nodules account for less than 1%. There are many thyroid diseases clinically, such as thyroid degeneration, inflammation, autoimmunity and neoplasms, which can manifest as nodules. Thyroid nodules can be single or multiple. The incidence of multiple nodules is higher than that of single nodules, but the incidence of thyroid cancer in single nodules is higher.

(1) For patients with normal or reduced thyroid function, a low-dose thyroid hormone treatment can be tried first. If the nodules become more obvious after treatment, surgical treatment should be considered.

(2) Toxic thyroid nodules can be surgically removed after hyperthyroidism is under control.

Single nodule folding

(1) Hot nodules: For those with symptoms of hyperthyroidism, surgical treatment may be considered.

(2) Cold nodules: ① Children or young men, especially those with a history of neck radiotherapy or hard, immobile nodules with palpable swollen lymph nodes in the neck, should undergo direct surgical treatment; ② For newly appeared nodules with a faster growth rate, surgical treatment should be considered.

The main things to note are: 1. Eat small meals frequently and don't overeat. Avoid spicy food, tobacco and alcohol.

2. Replenish sufficient water, drink about 2500 ml of water every day, and avoid stimulant drinks such as coffee and strong tea.

3. Appropriately control the intake of high-fiber foods, especially when suffering from diarrhea.

4. Pay attention to the reasonable combination of nutrients.

5. Avoid eating foods high in iodine, such as kelp, marine fish, and jellyfish skin. Since iodine is very volatile in the air or when heated, you only need to expose the iodized salt to the air or heat it slightly before use.

6. Eat foods rich in potassium and calcium.

7. Control your diet appropriately after your condition improves

We need to pay attention to this problem in our lives, because it requires physical therapy. That is to say, we should try not to eat spicy and irritating foods, do more exercise and keep our bodies healthy. Many diseases can actually be prevented early, but because we ignore them, they can find us. Of course, if you have troubles, see a doctor as soon as possible and recover as soon as possible.
