What are the symptoms of thyroid cancer penetrating the capsule

Symptoms of thyroid cancer penetrating the capsule mainly include hoarseness, dyspnea, dysphagia, etc. It is recommended that patients seek medical treatment in a timely manner and receive targeted treatment under the guidance of a doctor after a clear diagnosis.

1. Hoarseness: Thyroid cancer is a malignant tumor originating from the thyroid follicular epithelium or parafollicular epithelial cells. If thyroid cancer spreads, it may cause vocal cord paralysis, resulting in hoarseness.

2. Difficulty breathing: When thyroid cancer spreads, it will compress the trachea and esophagus, thus affecting normal breathing and eating. At this time, the patient will experience symptoms such as difficulty breathing and difficulty swallowing;

3. Difficulty in swallowing: When thyroid cancer spreads, it will cause metastasis to the cervical lymph nodes, causing lymph node enlargement. As the disease progresses, it will also compress the esophagus and trachea, thus affecting normal eating. At this time, the patient will experience symptoms of difficulty in swallowing;

4. Other symptoms: If thyroid cancer spreads, it may also affect surrounding tissues and organs. For example, if it invades the recurrent laryngeal nerve, it will cause symptoms such as choking and hoarseness. If it invades the trachea, it will cause symptoms such as coughing and expectoration. If it invades the esophagus, it will cause symptoms such as difficulty swallowing.

It is recommended that patients go to the hospital in time, undergo surgical resection under the guidance of a doctor, and cooperate with auxiliary treatments such as radiotherapy and chemotherapy.
