Thyroid Nodules
Thyroid nodule is an abnormal
growth in the thyroid gland.It is usually located at the edge of the thyroid
gland and can be felt as a lump in the neck.
These nodules may either be single or multiple. Sometimes, the Thyroid nodules
may become large and may cause pain and difficulty in breathing or swallowing.
Types of Thyroid Nodules
The different types of Thyroid Nodules are:
-
Multinodular goiter - When multiples nodules are
present.
-
Autonomous - When the nodule produces either too little
or too much thyroid hormones without any regard for the body' needs.
-
Thyroid cyst -When the nodule is filled with either
liquid or blood
-
Follicular adenomas - Single thyroid nodules which are
non cancerous and are the most common types of nodules.
So, what do you do when you come to know
about the thyroid nodules present in your neck. First of all - Don't Panic!
Having a thyroid nodule does not mean that it is cancerous. You will be glad to
know that most of the thyroid nodules are benign.
To make sure that the thyroid nodule is
not cancerous, you could go to a doctor (preferably an endocrinologist) and get
it checked. It would be even better if you could get a needle biopsy test done.
An ultrasound test can also be performed to find out more details about the
thyroid nodules.
