Patient's question:
The doctor has recently been feeling uncomfortable in his throat, sometimes even painful when swallowing saliva, as if there were something foreign in his throat. After a thorough examination at the hospital, the doctor said I have a goiter. I would like to try Chinese medicine for treatment, so I have been asking you for advice. How does traditional Chinese medicine treat goiter?Doctor's answer:
Chinese herbal medicine can treat hyperthyroidism by taking Xia capsules. The main component of Xia capsules is the extract of Xia, which has the effects of clearing heat, detoxifying, and reducing fire. It is very effective for goiter. However, when taking the medicine, it is also necessary to pay attention to a low-iodine diet, rest, avoid overexertion, and not smoke or drink alcohol. Additionally, drink more warm water and eat light, easily digestible food.
