What symptom does thyroid cancer have

Symptom 1: hyperthyroidism is the abbreviation of hyperthyroidism, which is a group of common endocrine diseases caused by excessive secretion of thyroid hormone caused by a variety of reasons. The main clinical manifestations were overeating, emaciation, fear of heat, hyperhidrosis, palpitation, excitement, goiter and ocular process, hand tremor, tibial vascular murmur, etc.

Symptom 2: a mass is found in the thyroid, hard and fixed, uneven surface is the common manifestation of all types of cancer. When swallowing, the gland has little mobility. Undifferentiated carcinoma may have the above symptoms in a short time. In addition to the obvious growth of the mass, it also has the characteristics of invading the surrounding tissue.

Symptom 3: hoarseness is because the thyroid mass invades the vocal cord, leading to vocal cord inflammation and hoarseness; when the thyroid mass invades the trachea, the trachea will shift, and the lumen will become narrow, leading to dyspnea; when the thyroid mass invades the esophagus, there will also be eating disorders.

matters needing attention

Generally, patients should eat less and more meals. The food should be cooked thoroughly and soft, easy to digest and absorb. The specific situation of each thyroid cancer patient is different. In addition to diet, patients and their families should also specifically ask the attending doctor for the most suitable diet.
