Total removal of thyroid cancer does not necessarily require lifelong abstinence from alcohol and should be based on the patient’s physical recovery. Thyroid cancer is a kind of endocrine disease, which can be treated by surgical sub-total excision or total excision in serious cases. After sub-total excision surgical treatment, alcohol should not be consumed for the time being. It takes about two months for the surgical wounds to recover completely, plus it takes some time for the thyroid function to return to a stable state, so alcohol prohibition is needed before recovery. In case of total surgical incision, it is necessary to take levothyroxine tablets for alternative treatment, and drinking alcohol is not recommended. With the gradual recovery of the condition, if the patient has no uncomfortable symptoms, he/she can drink alcohol appropriately, but not too much, so as not to stimulate the cardiovascular and cerebral blood vessels, resulting in hormone level disorders, which is not conducive to the patient’s health. However, if the thyroid function is not recovered after the examination, it is necessary to prohibit alcohol all the time. To summarize, it is recommended that patients strictly follow the doctor’s instructions to rest after surgery, and never drink alcohol if their physical conditions do not allow it.
