Patient's question:
I am almost 50 years old, and my health has not been very good these days. I often need to take medication, and besides gastritis, the medication has always been relatively moderate. Recently, symptoms of thyroid nodules have reappeared. Hello, what is the treatment for nodular goiter? How should nodular goiter be treated?Doctor's answer:
Nodular goiter is a common disease of the thyroid gland. Thyroid nodules are divided into benign and malignant nodules based on their nature. The nature of the nodule can be confirmed through fine-needle aspiration pathology. If the nodule is benign and smaller than one centimeter, follow-up thyroid ultrasound and thyroid function tests can be performed intermittently, with careful observation of treatment. If a non-benign nature is suspected, timely early surgical treatment is required.
