What is the huge harm that thyroid cancer does to the human body

What are the great harms of thyroid cancer to the human body? Thyroid cancer is a type of cancer with a higher incidence rate, and female patients are more than three times more than male patients. It can be seen that this is a common malignant tumor in women and is very harmful, so female friends should pay attention to the prevention of this disease. So what are the great harms of thyroid cancer to the human body?

Experts say that the main hazards of thyroid cancer are:

If thyroid cancer is not treated (because benign thyroid tumors have no obvious symptoms: no pain, no itching, no impact on speaking, eating, sleeping, work and study), the disease will last for a long time, both Qi and Yin will be damaged, and eventually Yin and Yang will damage each other, becoming a difficult to treat disease and even life-threatening. Therefore, it should be treated as soon as possible after discovery.

Thyroid cancer is divided into two types: benign and malignant. The cause is not very clear, and the pathological changes are thyroid follicle hyperplasia and thyroid tissue enlargement. Benign ones are soft in texture, while malignant ones are hard. Benign thyroid tumors are mostly single lumps in the neck, grow slowly, and may cause compression symptoms when they are large. The lumps move up and down with swallowing, are smooth, soft in texture, and are round or oval in shape, which can cause hyperthyroidism. If the tumor is small, it can be irradiated by a general treatment device to shrink it and make it disappear; if the tumor is too large, it should be surgically removed and then irradiated to achieve the purpose of anti-inflammatory, analgesic, swelling reduction, accelerate wound healing, and prevent infection and scarring.

One in ten benign thyroid cancers may develop into malignant ones, and malignancy may also be related to radiation exposure. Malignant thyroid cancers are divided into papillary adenocarcinoma, follicular adenocarcinoma, undifferentiated carcinoma, medullary carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma and lymphoma. There are lumps in the thyroid gland or nearby neck, and the texture is hard and uneven. There are no obvious subjective symptoms in the early stage, but in the late stage, there may be symptoms such as hoarseness, difficulty breathing or swallowing, pain in the occipital shoulder, or accompanied by diarrhea, palpitations, facial flushing and hypocalcemia. Anyone diagnosed with malignant thyroid cancer should undergo surgical resection or radioactive iodine treatment, chemotherapy, and irradiation treatment with a general practitioner treatment device according to the pathological type.

The above are all introductions to the hazards of thyroid cancer. Through the above introduction, I believe everyone has a certain understanding of the hazards of thyroid cancer. If the patient has some other questions, he can go to the corresponding hospital to consult a doctor. In life, we must pay attention to maintaining a good attitude, actively exercising, and improving our own resistance. Only in this way can we effectively prevent the occurrence of the disease. I hope it can be helpful to everyone.
