Patient's question:
Because of a certain illness, I have been unable to stop taking medication for a long time. Due to the medication, my endocrine system has been affected. Now I want to stop taking the medication and regulate my body. Is it necessary to have surgery immediately for a multinodular goiter?Doctor's answer:
Bilateral nodular goiter, this condition is best to have timely and thorough thyroid hormone tests to check, as it may be caused by hyperthyroidism, etc. If it is not hyperthyroidism, it may be a thyroid cyst, which is best to have further ultrasound examination. If it is a thyroid cyst, it can be surgically removed by the doctor, along with pathological examination, to best rule out the possibility of malignancy. At the same time, it is recommended to pay attention to rest, drink more water, and enhance dietary nutrition.
