The bull must be treated

SHARE WITH FRIENDS:

If the amount of iodine required for the production of thyroid hormones is not released into the bloodstream from the environment, then the thyroid hormone of the pituitary gland begins to divide and multiply, resulting in an enlarged gland.

Depending on the shape of the enlarged thyroid gland, there are several types (for example, diffuse, ie diffuse, nodular and mixed, depending on the activity of hyperthyroidism - toxic, ie, increased activity, hypothyroidism, ie decreased activity and euthyroidism or notoxic, ie inactive). Often in endemic areas there are scattered and mixed bulls with normal or reduced activity, while sporadic bulls are mostly nodular or mixed, and toxic or nontoxic in terms of activity.
Nodular non-toxic goiter is one of the most dangerous diseases from an oncological point of view, as it can develop into thyroid cancer over time.
There may be no signs of cancer in the early stages. In many cases, nodular goiter is a "mask" for thyroid cancer. For this reason, nodular bulls are considered a pre-cancerous disease and, from the time of detection, are treated surgically, rather than attempting to treat them with drugs.
Removal of the thyroid gland due to the bull makes the patient more difficult, ie he loses a lot of blood during the operation, and then has to take medication regularly. However, even if all the necessary medications are used, they will not replace the thyroid gland. Therefore, after the operation, the patient should take care of himself and follow certain recommendations. For example, they should not be exposed to the sun for long periods of time, they should not take saunas and baths, and they should not take hot baths, they should avoid physical and mental stress, and they should not carry heavy loads. If the patient participates in recreational activities to improve his mood, it is better to do his favorite activity more often.
In addition, patients who have undergone thyroid surgery should consume less iodine-containing foods (seafood and seafood, iodized salt, nuts). Because there is no thyroid gland to digest and process the iodine that enters the body, iodine products weigh on the body.
Patients should eat foods rich in calcium and vitamin D (low-fat cottage cheese and cheese, eggs, whole wheat bran, lean meat and fish, fruits and vegetables). If a person is often weak, sweats a lot, gets hot or cold independently of the air, has a memory loss, is unable to work, has a poor sense of smell and taste, has numbness in his limbs, begins to lose weight, and has a fast heartbeat. He should seek treatment on his recommendation once a definite diagnosis has been made.
