Patient's question:
Doctors, our teacher hasn't come for tutoring recently. It is said that he suffers from nodular goiter. Is nodular goiter serious?Doctor's answer:
Thyroid nodules are a disease that most middle-aged people are prone to. These nodules are usually benign and generally have no impact on the body, so there is no need to worry excessively. If the nodules are small and show no symptoms, they do not require treatment. Regular follow-up can be done, with a thyroid ultrasound checkup every year or so to monitor for any fibrosis or other conditions.
