With the improvement of people’s living standard, life pressure increases with it. Bad mood, irregular life and irregular diet have been running through a large part of people’s life. This is also one of the reasons why the incidence of thyroid disease has increased year by year.
Thyroid is a major endocrine organ of the human body, which mainly secretes thyroid hormones. Thyroid disease is gradually understood by people and is no longer so strange. Thyroid diseases include hyperthyroidism (hyperthyroidism), hypothyroidism (hypothyroidism), Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, thyroid nodules, thyroid cancer, etc.
Endocrine organ of the body: thyroid gland
Thyroid disease is usually more insidient, a lot of people can not find, usually combined with normal people about, only a few people show more severe symptoms, and to take the initiative to check. The incidence of thyroid disease in women is significantly higher than that in men, but it does not mean that men are free from the possibility of thyroid disease. I met a man in his 20s with hyperthyroidism in clinical practice.
hyperthyroidism
Hyperthyroidism is referred to as “hyperthyroidism”, which is a disease caused by excessive thyroid hormone release due to thyroid synthesis, resulting in hypermetabolism of the body and sympathetic nervous excitement.
JiaJian
Hypothyroidism, or hypothyroidism, is a systemic disease caused by inadequate synthetic secretion of the thyroid gland.
6 major clinical manifestations, help you distinguish hyperthyroidism, hypothyroidism
The performance of hypothyroidism

The above is hyperthyroidism, the general expression of hypothyroidism, some people’s expression is not too obvious, or do not have typical, therefore, after the control clinical manifestation self-examination, or need to carry on the routine thyroid “B ultrasound” examination or blood test thyroid function (thyroid function) to make clear the diagnosis of the disease.
B – scan of thyroid
Thyroid disease is not easy to be found, many people are found in the routine physical examination, some people will be very nervous, refuse to accept the fact, the mood fluctuations are relatively large, these are not conducive to the treatment of the disease.
Although thyroid diseases rarely heal on their own, as long as active treatment, it is not difficult to control the disease. But it must be clear that if thyroid disease has been diagnosed, it must be properly treated, do not delay, it seems to be a minor disease, but endocrine disorders will cause a lot of discomfort or other diseases in the body.
