The reason why thyroid cancer causes foreign body sensation when swallowing

Thyroid cancer may cause a foreign body sensation when swallowing, which may be caused by the large size of the tumor, invasion of the esophagus by the tumor, compression of the trachea by the tumor, etc. It is recommended that patients seek medical treatment in a timely manner and receive treatment under the guidance of a doctor.

1. Large tumor size: Thyroid cancer is a malignant tumor. If the size of the thyroid cancer is relatively large, it may cause compression to the surrounding tissues, resulting in a foreign body sensation when swallowing. In this case, it can be treated by surgical resection, and radiotherapy, chemotherapy and other auxiliary treatments are also required;

2. Tumor invasion of the esophagus: If thyroid cancer has spread locally and metastasized, it may cause compression of the esophagus, resulting in difficulty swallowing. At this time, it can be treated with radiotherapy or iodine-131 treatment;

3. Tumor compresses the trachea: If the thyroid cancer is large, it may compress the trachea, thus affecting normal breathing function and causing a foreign body sensation when swallowing. In this case, radiotherapy or chemotherapy can be used as an auxiliary treatment.

4. Other reasons: If the patient with thyroid cancer has pharyngitis and other diseases, it may also cause congestion and swelling in the throat, which may affect the normal swallowing function and cause a foreign body sensation when swallowing. At this time, you can take amoxicillin capsules, cefixime capsules and other drugs for treatment as prescribed by the doctor.

In daily life, you should pay attention to eating a light diet and avoid spicy and irritating foods. If you experience any discomfort, you should go to the hospital in time and actively cooperate with the doctor's treatment.
