1:36 Treatment for Thyroid Nodule
Thyroid nodules are nodules (raised areas of tissue or fluid) which commonly arise within an otherwise normal thyroid gland.[1] They may be hyperplastic or tumorous, but only a small percentage of thyroid tumors are malignant. Small, asymptomatic nodules are common, and often go unnoticed.[2] Nodules that grow larger or produce symptoms may eventually need medical care. A goitre may have one nodule - uninodular, multiple nodules - multinodular, or be diffuse. Signs and symptoms
Often these abnormal growths of thyroid tissue are located at the edge of the thyroid gland and can be felt as a lump in the throat. When they are large, they can sometimes be seen as a lump in the front of the neck.[citation needed]
Sometimes a thyroid nodule presents as a fluid-filled cavity called a thyroid cyst. Often, solid components are mixed with the fluid. Thyroid cysts most commonly result from degenerating thyroid adenomas, which are benign, but they occasionally contain malignant solid components.[3]
Diagnosis
After a nodule is found during a physical examination, a referral to an endocrinologist, a thyroidologist or otolaryngologist may occur. Most commonly an ultrasound is performed to confirm the presence of a nodule, and assess the status of the whole gland. Measurement of thyroid stimulating hormone and anti-thyroid antibodies will help decide if there is a functional thyroid disease such as Hashimoto's thyroiditis present, a known cause of a benign nodular goitre.[4] Fine needle biopsy for cytopathology is also used.[5][6][7]
Thyroid nodules are extremely common in young adults and children. Almost 50% of people have had one, but they are usually only detected by a physician during the course of a health examination or fortuitously discovered during the investigation of an unrelated condition.[8]
Thx a lot. My family member (aged 55) got 2cm thyroid nodule diagnosed. Heart beats normal & ECG normal. Doctor said not much to worry for now. So, we researched and made some hypothesis. One month later, it disappeared.
What we assumed and did
Leaky gut, autoimmune reaction. We did ABC.
A// Stopped gluten. Stopped oatmeal.
B// improved digestion, eg some ginger in meals
C// Gut health and healing. Bone broth, the good one. Probiotics eg Yakult, and G-Niib.
Every situation is different. FYR only.
It was a very informative video! 💯
Glad it was helpful!
I recently went through menopause. And now I have nodules.
There is a doctor I saw on TH-cam and he is located in Miami. He said you do not have to have surgery. He said the therapy they use, is injecting the nodules with a substance to shrink it.
Really? Do you know the name of the doctor on youtube?
Doctor name ?
I don’t remember the name but it is somewhere in my past videos. I searched TH-cam for natural remedies when I came across it.
@dasdivya24 yes it is possible in India also
Me too
What are the “subtle symptoms” you are mentioning around 1 minute? Are they the same as what follows but weaker?
Also, how can anemia affect the thyroid gland?
Thanks !
So if it's non-cancerous or if it doesn't spread, is it generally not necessarily to remove the entire thyroid gland? I meaning by medication or sucking the fluid inside the nodule through injection or anything like that is considered, or do they remove the thyroid gland in any nodule case?
How you doing now?
Mine grow big some days and then they shrink to almost invisible. Any idea why that is? I was supposed to do Biopsy, but I have been avoiding it!
Good information thanks
Glad it was helpful.
I had a goiter on my neck went and had it looked at it was benign forgot about it. It got bigger one day it hurt to move my head up and down. It was swollen because I was taking a ashawagonda. I called the doctor made an appointment Gorder got smaller had a scan done before I could get to the ears, nose and throat doctor. It completely went away ears, nose, and throat. Doctor told me to take a picture if it comes back extra strength ashawagonda. truth is it still there but it only protrudes every now and then, but if I hold my breath, I can make the dot come back so it’s really not gone all the way but mostly no one can see it
Thank you❤
Good information. Thanks
Glad it was helpful!
Very good .god bless

You're welcome
Goiter???
I too have in my throat. My doctor advised me to have a surgery if it grows
Same here but I didn't have any surgery
Just take seaweed or cook and boil your food with dulse in the water. Take it fairly reguarily and eat it as well, if you can mix it in to strong flavors like Hamburger or pasta etc
@BlueandBats what type of nodule u have
Same here
@@BlueandBats could you let me know what to eat to naturally remove this thyroid nodule without any surgery. Any kind of meditation or exercise?
I am an Indian.
Can you tell if you have you have thyroid cancer from a blood test from the arm
No they biopsy the thyroid with a fine needle. Look at cells to see if cancerous .
No , you have to do biopsy
I have goiters on right pushing on windpipe not bothersome yet I have my left one taken out many years ago I’m hyperthyroid
I recommend consulting with an endocrinologist promptly to assess the severity of the goiters and explore appropriate treatment options considering your history of hyperthyroidism.
@@MedicalCentric I did they said if it wasn’t bothering me no need to remove I had a ct scan too not cancerous
Is this affecting emotions like sudden sadness or depression?
Yes it does because I have it
Yes even I suffer from anxiety.. tension.. neck fullness.. it's unbearable
@@amani5829hate the neck fullness!

Sir adress please
what address ?
Does it cause coughing?
Thyroid nodules themselves do not directly cause coughing, but if they grow significantly and press against the trachea or esophagus, it can lead to symptoms like coughing or difficulty swallowing. Most thyroid nodules are benign, but if you experience such symptoms, it's crucial to consult a healthcare professional for evaluation.
