Patient's question:
Hello doctor, a year ago I was carefully diagnosed with hyperthyroidism. Now my body has become particularly restless, and I am swollen all over, even my face has become fatter. My friends say I have gained weight recently, but in fact they don't know that I am sick. Hello, doctor, for the careful examination of hyperthyroidism, how is it now, what should I do?Doctor's answer:
As the current situation shows, if the body experiences swelling again and the face becomes puffy, it is likely that hyperthyroidism has turned into hypothyroidism. This can cause certain interference to the body, so it is necessary to go to the hospital for a thorough thyroid function check to determine the specific type of the disease. If it has turned into hypothyroidism, then thyroid hormone treatment is required to control the condition. Rest more and avoid overexertion.
