Early symptoms of hyperthyroidism

Hyperthyroidism is a relatively common disease, especially among women. Most hyperthyroidism patients worry about how long they can live. This is a common problem. In fact, hyperthyroidism can be divided into benign and malignant types. As for how long you can live, it depends on the severity of your disease. So how long can you live with hyperthyroidism? Let’s find out together!

There are now very mature medical methods in clinical practice to treat hyperthyroidism. Many patients can achieve the expected prognosis after treatment. Hyperthyroidism can be cured and will not affect the patient's life span. Therefore, patients can give up their mentality and cooperate with doctors to receive treatment. The treatment course for hyperthyroidism is about one and a half to two years, and it can be cured in three years, so patients must insist on taking antithyroid drugs for a long time.

1. Recommendations for patients with hyperthyroidism

Patients with hyperthyroidism can often listen to some elegant and pleasant music, and develop the habit of planting flowers, raising fish, and raising pets, so as to relax their temperament, calm their mentality, and gradually eliminate mental symptoms. Patients with hyperthyroidism need a long period of time for treatment and rehabilitation. During home rehabilitation, they should quit smoking and drinking, prevent colds, avoid mental stimulation, prevent excessive fatigue, reduce iodine intake in their diet, and female patients should pay attention to contraception.

2. Patients with hyperthyroidism should quit smoking and drinking.

Note that patients with hyperthyroidism should strictly quit smoking and drinking. Because tobacco and alcohol can have obvious excitatory and stimulating effects on many systems of the body, patients with hyperthyroidism will experience symptoms such as increased heart rate and increased hand tremors after smoking or drinking, making the hyperthyroidism symptoms that may have been relatively mild become more serious, which is not conducive to the recovery of patients with hyperthyroidism. Therefore, patients with hyperthyroidism should strictly quit smoking and drinking.

3. Pay attention to mental stimulation of hyperthyroidism

Pay attention to mental stimulation and triggers of hyperthyroidism. During the recovery process, patients may suffer from worsening or relapse of the disease due to the influence of certain triggers. Patients should be careful to avoid these triggers that may induce hyperthyroidism in their daily lives. Infectious diseases, such as the common cold and tonsillitis, may induce abnormal immune responses in patients with hyperthyroidism and aggravate the condition, so prevention should be taken. Mental stimulation, such as emotional tension, anxiety, etc.; excessive fatigue, strenuous exercise; trauma; pregnancy; excessive iodine intake and other factors may cause the condition of hyperthyroidism to worsen or relapse, and should be avoided.

IV. Suggestions

The family, friends and colleagues of patients with hyperthyroidism are their important spiritual support. They should be more sympathetic, comforting, understanding and caring towards the patients. They should be tolerant of some of the patients' neurotic behaviors and avoid direct conflicts.

5. Hyperthyroidism patients should pay attention to rest

You should get adequate rest during the convalescence period, but you should not stay in bed all the time. A combination of work and rest is more conducive to your physical recovery. Patients should maintain a regular schedule, ensure adequate sleep, and avoid strenuous exercise and activities that may cause tension and excitement. When the symptoms of hyperthyroidism are severe, patients should rest in bed appropriately, maintain a calm state of mind, and rest in a comfortable, quiet environment with good air circulation. When the symptoms are alleviated, you can get out of bed and start light activities, but it is best not to feel tired. Patients should not do too much housework. They can participate in some beneficial activities and work according to their condition to adjust their life interest. When your body recovers better, you should consider continuing to work and should not take long-term sick leave.

If you are sick, you need to seek treatment immediately, but in life and work you must maintain a calm attitude, do not put too much pressure on yourself, relax appropriately, and do not always live in a stressful environment. This will make your life more meaningful. Diseases will not always haunt you.
