When we develop a disease, our bodies also change.The change can be large or small depending on the disease, so you need to observe it carefully.Even if you don’t feel much change in your daily life, you should not forget to take a medical examination when the time comes.The thyroid gland is one of the diseases that doesn’t feel a big change.Today, we will focus on what kind of thyroid disease there is in this thyroid gland and what symptoms appear.
First of all, I think we need to know what role the thyroid gland plays before investigating the disease.It is located in the center of our neck, and its size is really small, so it cannot be seen with the naked eye, and it cannot be felt when touched by hand.It is such a small organ, but it plays an important role that it regulates our metabolic rate or generates heat to keep our body temperature constant and maintains the function of all organs properly through thyroid hormones.Therefore, special attention is needed because thyroid disease in Seongbuk-gu can affect not only the thyroid area but also the whole body.
Typical thyroid diseases are hyperfunction and hypofunction.Hyperfunction refers to hyperthyroidism, which increases body metabolism when there are more thyroid hormones in the body, so you may sweat a lot due to more energy consumption or heat than usual.On the other hand, in the case of hypofunctional diseases, lack of thyroid hormones in the body makes you lethargic about everything, and your body temperature decreases and you are prone to cold.Both diseases change gradually, so you need to be careful as they are often found in medical examinations or blood tests without being aware of them.In fact, the above two Seongbuk-gu thyroid diseases occur more frequently as many people in Korea suffer from them, so please refer to this.
Thyroid nodules and cancer are also common diseases, so you need to be careful.Nodules protrude enough to be seen or touched by the naked eye when they grow in size, so you should examine them carefully.Especially, the older you are, the more likely it is to develop.Cancer can be divided into papillary cancer, follicular cancer, water quality box, and undifferentiated cancer, of which papillary cancer is the most common.As with nodules, if the size increases to a certain extent, it can protrude enough to be seen by the naked eye, but it is often not known because the growth speed is really slow.
Regular visits and medical checkups are really essential to be careful of thyroid diseases in Seongbuk-gu.If you haven’t had a physical examination for the past two years, it is recommended to visit the hospital as soon as possible, and if you have any suspected symptoms of thyroid disease even if it’s not time to visit the hospital, it’s recommended to check them out immediately.
