How to treat acromegaly

Patient's question:

I want to ask how should acromegaly be treated? Which hospital is the most effective in treating acromegaly? Is there any way to cure acromegaly?

Doctor's answer:

A rare disease caused by the excessive production of growth hormone in the body, leading to a slow progression of various symptoms. The most prominent symptoms include enlarged hands and feet and a weak facial contour. The cause is usually a non-cancerous tumor growing in the pituitary gland. Treatment methods include surgical removal of the tumor, medication to suppress the release of growth hormone, or blocking the interference of growth hormone. Pay attention to a light diet, moderate exercise, and maintaining good health.
