Thyroid Nodule Treatment
Thyroid nodules are lumps that develop within the thyroid gland and can vary in size
and type. While most nodules are benign and harmless, some may cause symptoms
such as difficulty swallowing, breathing issues, or hormonal imbalances. These signs
may indicate that you require treatment:
- A visible lump in the neck
- Difficulty swallowing or breathing
- Hoarseness or voice changes
- Pain or discomfort in the neck
- Hyperthyroidism or hypothyroidism symptoms like weight changes, fatigue, or mood swings
Best Thyroid Nodule Treatment
Our specialists use advanced techniques like Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA) to
shrink thyroid nodules without the need for surgery or long recovery times. RFA is a
stitch-free, non-invasive solution that allows patients to resume their daily activities
quickly.
Frequently Asked Questions
Diagnosis typically involves a physical examination, blood tests to check thyroid
function, imaging like ultrasound, and a fine-needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) to
determine if the nodule is benign or malignant.
Common causes include iodine deficiency, inflammation of the thyroid (thyroiditis),
overgrowth of thyroid tissue, or, in rare cases, thyroid cancer.
Most thyroid nodules are benign and not harmful. However, some nodules may
require treatment if they cause symptoms, hormonal imbalances, or are found to be
malignant.
