Patient's question:
The thyroid has been swollen for a long time. It took a long time to go to the hospital. After the doctor's careful examination, he said that there might be a possibility of cancer due to inflammation of the thyroid nodule. I was very sad. Is the inflammation of the thyroid nodule cancer?Doctor's answer:
You should try your best to adjust your mindset now. Generally speaking, thyroid nodules can be either benign or malignant. Whether it is cancer, it needs to be determined through a biopsy. After getting a nodule, in order to prevent the condition from worsening, everyone still needs to pay attention in daily life. For example, try to eat less seafood with high iodine content, maintain a light diet, and prevent irritation to the growth of the nodule.
